Common Wedding Rituals in the USA
Being a country of different cultural races, there is a great variety of wedding styles in the United States. However, the majority of weddings nowadays still follow a number of traditions. One of the traditions dating back to the nineteenth century is about what a bride should wear on her wedding day. It is commonly believed that on her wedding day, the bride should carry with her 'something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue’. This is because each of these things has a special meaning for the bride on this big day.
When a bride wears 'something old’, it reminds her of her family and the past. Thus, some brides may weartheir mother's wedding dress or a piece of her jewellery.
'Something new’ that the bride wears means good luck and hope for a happy future with her husband. This new item is usually a pair of new shoes, or it can be the wedding dress or something else.
When the bride wears 'something borrowed’, it symbolizes the help and support shegets from herfriendsandherfamily whenevershe needs it. Anexample of 'something borrowed’ can be a married friend's bridal veil or a friend's handkerchief.
'Something blue’ means trust and faith between the bride and the groom. Nowadays, some brides are creative with this item. For example, they may have their fingernails painted blue. Nevertheless, the most popular blue item is the garter that the bride wears on her leg.
Things are changing fast these days; however, the rituals about what the bride should wear on her wedding day remain kept strictly by a lot of women in the USA.
