The Honeymoon
The tradition of the honeymoon can be dated back several centuries. Following the wedding ceremony, the happy couple were presented with a pair of bridal goblets and a supply of a fermented honey brew called ‘mead’. The tradition states that the couple would share the brew for a full lunar cycle, or ‘moon’, which lasted for approximately one month. It was thought that the delicate, yet volatile honey brew would bestow virility and fertility on the newly married couple. And so, the ‘honeymoon’ was born.
