A Funny Wedding Tradition

The wedding traditions followed across the continents are as diverse as the world itself. While some of the traditions can make you emotional, others are really interesting & funny. In fact, the world seems full of some of the most interesting wedding ceremonies.

In Wales for example, the wedding ceremony is associated with a tradition called “Tied into a knot”. As per the tradition, a young couple tied with rope is sent to bed. By morning if the couple manages to loosen the knot, they are set free & in case the knot remains till morning, they are declared man & wife. In another wedding tradition followed in Hungary, there exists something called the “Money Dance”. It goes that on the day of the wedding, the bride is supposed to put her shoes in the center of the room & men interested in dancing with the bride put money in them.

The German’s & Vietnamese have a different tradition to follow during weddings. Two German traditions include that the invitations for the wedding be sent to the guests weeks before the due date & also that the bride needs to demonstrate her sewing skills before the wedding day. In Vietnam the tradition is to have the wedding party organized by both, the groom’s family as well as the bride’s family.

While some of these traditions can be really hard on the newly-weds, others add humor to the complete ceremony. Besides, each ceremony has some belief associated with it & they all are followed just for an untroubled & happy life of the newly-weds.
