Wedding Trivia- Bouquets and June Weddings

This morning I went to the Amish Market in town to get our weekly supply lunch meat and free range chicken eggs and in their weekly flyer was some interesting bit of trivia, I though I would share with you!

Back in the 1500′s most people got married in June, because they took their ‘YEARLY’ bath in May. They still smelled pretty good by June. However, since they were starting to smell, brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor. Hence the custom today, of carrying a bouquet when getting married :p

I thought this was the funniest thing. I am unsure of the validity, but still it is very humorous. So glad for indoor plumbing and brides that now bath !

HAPPY SUNDAY!:)

A bride passed this on to me. It tells you sunrises, sunsets, and moon phases in your area. It has become very helpful to me to plan portrait sessions as well as just to know what the light and the moon is doing, so that I can be aware

Those who have followed my blogging progress in the past, know that I was not very good at it. Now that we have a new season before us, I thought it would be a good opportunity to say good bye to my old blog and start new and fresh. You can still view my old blog if you wish. If nothing else it serves as history . I look forward to this new challenge. Please feel free to leave comments as you see things you like.
