Wedding Traditions

FH and I pretty much blew all traditions out of the water with our wedding LOL The one thing I’m carrying on though is wearing my mom’s veil. It was her eldest sister’s, and was passed down through all 5 aunts. My mom is the youngest, so she was the last to wear it.

I don't know if this is a regional thing or not, but in my family, we always make a bow bouquet for the rehearsal out of bows from the bridal shower presents (and the tissue paper if they are in gift bags).

My mother also said she has some pearls that every woman in the family has worn for their wedding. I was thinking about wearing my Mothra pendant originally, but I think I might tie it around my bouquet or incorporate it some other way.
