Wedding Rituals

   Have you ever wondered why a bride wears a veil?  Why people throw rice at newlyweds?  Why it's called a honeymoon when neither you nor your fiancée is named Honey?  Virtually every part of a wedding, from the engagement to the honeymoon, has a rich history.  Cultural roots, ancestry, and religious beliefs have shaped marriages for thousands of years. 

   The following descriptions will provide you with a brief history of various wedding elements.  It's a pretty good bet that you will see some of them at your wedding, and for years to come.  So read on and get the inside scoop on how these rituals came about.
