How Did the Wedding Bouquet Toss Tradition Get
Started Anyway?
CULTURE
  • The reason behind this time-honored wedding
    tradition might surprise you.

  • Anyone who has been at a wedding has seen the
    sometimes cringe-worthy moment The emcee informs
    all single ladies to get into position on the
    dance floor for the tossing of the brides
    bouquet.
  • Ladies try to get their angle just right behind
    the bride to assure when they reach out their
    hands, the beautiful array of flowers lands in
    their possession. But why all this nonsense over
    a few pretty petals?

  • There are a lot of weird traditions at weddings,
    like not being able to see the bride before the
    wedding, wearing a veil, and the
    bride standing to the left of her groom at the
    altar.
  • Throwing the bouquet is one of the frivolous ones
    that has gone from serious to merely jovial to
    now possibly outdated as time has gone on.
  • The bride flinging the bouquet over her head to
    all the single ladiesbridesmaids and guests
    alikeis a sign of good fortunebut only for the
    one who catches it!

How did the tradition start?
  • Hundreds of years ago, it was thought to be very
    good luck to touch the bride. This often caused
    discomfort and invasion of privacy to the bride,
    since guests would typically stand around her in
    an attempt to rip the gown off! (Uh, no thanks!)
  • In order to deter guests, the bride began tossing
    their bouquets into the crowds to distract
    people, then making a break for it with her
    husband to the bridal chamber. The groom would
    open the door and toss out the garter once the
    couple was inside.

  • People just wanted pieces of the brides
    accessories because she was married. So guests
    were naturally thrilled to grab the flowers,
    since they, too, were thought to bring romantic
    luck for the future.
  • Over the years, this act of distraction has
    turned into a tradition meant for the bride to
    pass on her good fortune to one single lady.
    Whoever catches the bouquet at a wedding is
    thought to be the next lady in line to wed.
  • Unlike medieval times, however, today the bride
    doesnt scamper away, but relishes the moment for
    her ability to unknowingly choose who will follow
    in her footsteps next, while the guests now
    respect the beauty of the bride and her gown, as
    opposed to ripping it off of her.

7
  • While obtaining the bouquet is only meant to
    bring good luck to women, the garter offers the
    same tradition for the men.
  • And some forward-thinking brides are including
    men in the bouquet toss or foregoing it
    altogether.

This Is Why You Get Down on One Knee to Propose
RELATIONSHIPS

That knight in shining armor from your favorite
childhood fairy tale may play a part.

  • A traditional marriage proposal typically plays
    out like this Your partner bends down on one
    knee, betroths themselves to you, and presents a
    sparkling diamond ring nestled in a black velvet
    box. But why do we get down on one knee to pop
    the question in the first place?
  • Unfortunately, nobody can agree on the historical
    origins of this romantic gesture, but there are a
    few reported theories that show promise.

11
  • During the Middle Ages, chivalry was not yet dead
    and formal courtship was the medieval version of
    modern-day dating.
  • Kneeling was also the protocol for many
    ceremonial rituals and rites of passage,
    including those of the romantic kind.
  • Medieval artwork and literature shows knights
    genuflecting before their feudal lord as a sign
    of honor and respect, or kneeling in front of a
    noblewoman to express their eternal servitude and
    admiration in a show of courtly love.

12
  • But medieval rituals arent the only possible
    explanation religion may play a role as well.
    Many faiths, like Christianity and Islam, have
    their worshippers kneel in prayer to express
    their devoted service and everlasting respect for
    their God.
  • So when your beloved takes a knee and whips out
    that ring, theyre not only hoping youll say
    yes, theyre telling you youre worthy of
    honor, respect, and love that lasts an eternity.

13
  • Now that we have that answer, the true question
    is why are proposals done with engagement rings?
  • And, as far as the wedding ceremony itself
    goes, why do brides stand to the left, and why
    do bridesmaids wear the same color? The more you
    know!
