  • No Peeking

    It’s been a tradition for years that couples shouldn’t see each other on their wedding day until their ceremony. This came about years ago, as the groom wasn’t to see his bride because they didn’t want him to change his mind and run. Today, however, couples still take part in this tradition as a way to build anticipation. What’s your take on it?

  • No Yellow Flowers

    Back in the Victorian era, the tradition came about that you shouldn’t incorporate yellow flowers into your wedding. Yellow blooms were said to symbolize jealously, and were believed to curse marriages. However, in today’s world, couples have been choosing to display yellow flowers throughout their big day, and marriages have been just fine!

  • No Marrying on Saturday

    It is said that Saturday is the most unlucky day of the week. Therefore, couples shouldn’t tie the knot on this day. But, in today’s generation, Saturday is actually the most popular day to say “I do” on. So, don’t avoid marrying on Saturday, as couples have been choosing this day for years, and have lucky marriages!

You shouldn’t plan your wedding a certain way based off of superstitions! These are just a few that you can ignore when it comes to your own big day.
