Friday the Thirteenth… Superstitions! Do you believe?

By Trias Flowers and Events on June 13, 2014 in Trends

Friday the 13th is a day full of mystery to most.

Check out these 9 Wedding Superstitions.

We thought we would share this Loverly article with you! Can you think of any other weird wedding superstitions you’ve heard, tell us below!

Today is Friday the 13th, day of a million superstitions. For the (endearingly) paranoid among us, today is a day to steer clear of black cats and ladders, and to avoid making any potentially life-altering decisions. But Friday the 13th isn’t the only time people get superstitious: for centuries, folks around the world have been cautioning engaged couples against marrying on a Saturday, or choosing a pearl engagement ring in order to avoid years of bad luck in marriage.

Wedding superstitions

Read on for nine of the most surprising wedding superstitions from around the world.

1. Wearing a veil protects the bride against evil spirits. Or so believed the ancient Greeks and Romans — and to this day, brides follow the tradition.

2. Never give a pearl engagement ring. The shape is thought to be bad luck because it resembles a tear.

3. An older, unmarried sister must dance barefoot at her younger sister’s wedding. Or risk never finding a husband.

4. Never marry on a Saturday. It’s the unluckiest day of the week to wed, according to English folklore.

5. The marrying couple should never see each other before the ceremony. It might give them an opportunity to change their minds!

6. Never give a knife as a wedding gift. They symbolize bad luck and broken relationships. If you receive a knife from a guest, give the giver a penny — that way you’ve “purchased” the knives and they’re no longer a gift.

7. Steer clear of nuns and monks on the big day. A bride who passes one of these religious figures is said to be cursed with a life of infertility and poverty.

8. Skip the peonies. They symbolize shame. (Yes, we’re shedding a tear over this one!)

9. Rain on your wedding day is good luck. We’re pretty sure that’s just something people say to make couples who are flipping out about the weather feel better…but we’ve seen enough charming rainy-day weddings to know it’s definitely not a bad thing!

Thanks Kellee for such a great article!!
