WEDDING CAKE – WHAT IS ITS SIGNIFICANCE?

What's the Significance (Photos: Pinterest)

The Wedding Cake (“Bride’s Pie” Ancient France) got it’s origin in ancient Rome, where bread was broken over the Bride’s head to bring the couple good fortune.

In Medieval England the cakes were stacked very high and the couple would have to kiss over it without knocking it over…if they succeeded they guaranteed that they would have a prosperous life together forever. 🙂 Guests were given a piece of cake out of politeness. It was considered very rude and bad luck not to eat the (Bride’s Pie) wedding cake.

Multicultural Monday Trivia

Written By: thinkeventsplanning - Jan• 14•13

In Which Culture Did the Carrying of a Bouquet Originate_____?

A) Japanese B) Roman C) African

Where did the Bouquet Originate? (Photos: Pinterest)

If you answered (B) Roman, you answered correctly. You see in the Early Roman wedding tradition, brides carried a bunch of herbs, made

from garlic and or rosemary, (later came the orange blossom) under their veils which was a symbol of fidelity and fertility and to ward off evil.

Today instead of using the herbs, today’s brides use the modern bridal bouquet.
