A wedding is a sacred ceremony where two individuals are united in marriage. The customs and traditions surrounding weddings vary widely across different cultures, ethnicities, religions, and social backgrounds. Regardless of these variations, most wedding ceremonies involve the exchange of vows between the couple, the presentation of symbolic gifts or offerings such as rings, flowers, or dresses, and a public declaration of marriage by an officiant or authority figure. Special attire is often worn by the couple and their guests, and the ceremony is typically followed by a celebratory reception. Throughout history, the use of wedding rings has been a prominent symbol of marital commitment. While the exact origins of this tradition remain uncertain, one theory suggests a connection to the ancient Roman belief in the “Vena amoris,” a vein believed to run directly from the fourth finger to the heart. Despite the romantic notion of this belief, historian Vicki Howard suggests that the association of rings with eternal love is more of a modern construct. Interestingly, in the United States, the practice of a groom wearing a wedding band did not become widespread until the early 20th century, whereas in Europe, it has been a longstanding tradition dating back to ancient times. The conclusion of the wedding ceremony, often referred to as the “send off,” encompasses various cultural practices. In Ethiopian weddings, it may involve bowing and kissing the knees of elders, symbolizing respect and seeking their blessings. In many Western countries, as well as India and Malaysia, it’s customary to shower the newlyweds with rice or seeds, symbolizing prosperity and fertility. Contrary to popular belief, the use of uncooked rice for this purpose does not pose harm to birds. Additionally, shoe tossing is another tradition observed in several cultures as a gesture of well-wishes for the newly married couple.
