This morning we would like to share a few words about the theouries surrounding the tradition of the bridal veil..The first theory dates back to Roman times when arranged marriages were common..The bride would wear the veil in order to cover her face until the ceremony was complete. The groom would then be permitted to lift the veil in order to reveal his 'blushing bride' for the first time. The... bride was therefore protected against the groom backing out of the wedding ceremony if he did not like what he waw..the secon theory, also dating back to Roman times relates to a practice whereby a groom would throw a blanket over the face of chosen bride as he captured her.....yet another thougtht behind the the tradition is that the veil was worn as a means of protection for the bride from evil spirits...and a fourth theory suggests that the veil was used in ofer to hide the bride's blushes. The veil is therefore often referred to as a 'blusher' and this is where the term 'blushing bride' stem from....
What ever the reason.....enjoy and be happy.......♥
