There are many wedding traditions that vary across cultures and regions. Here are some common wedding traditions:
- The bride wearing a white wedding dress
- The exchange of rings between the bride and groom during the ceremony
- The throwing of the bride’s bouquet to unmarried female guests
- The throwing of rice or confetti on the newlyweds as they exit the ceremony
- The cutting of the wedding cake and the feeding of each other a piece
- The first dance between the newlyweds
- The father of the bride walking her down the aisle
- The exchange of vows and wedding rings
- The presence of bridesmaids and groomsmen to support the couple
- The use of a wedding arch or canopy to signify the couple’s new life together.
Again, these traditions vary by culture, so some cultures may not observe some or any of these traditions.
