Superstitions...

Saturday is the unluckiest wedding day, according to English folklore.
Funny -- it's the most popular day of the week to marry!

Many superstitions began in ancient times when betrothed couples were believed to be particularly vulnerable to bad luck and evil spirits.

These beliefs resulted in an endless number of rituals, traditions and superstitious practices that are still followed around the world today. Other customs originated in myth and folklore; and their meanings have been long lost and forgotten over the years.

Some are commonplace, such as the bride not being seen in her wedding dress by the groom before the ceremony, others are unique and vary widely between cultures.

Either way, it seems as if it might be prudent for the bride and groom to be very careful to not provoke any nearby malevolent spirits and to surround themselves with good luck...

Should you be superstitious on your wedding day? Why not? I find them rather fun.

Here's a fun wedding superstition .

Married in white, you have chosen all right.
Married in green, ashamed to be seen.
Married in red, you will wish yourself dead.
Married in blue, you will always be true.
Married in yellow, ashamed of your fellow.
Married in black, you will wish yourself back.
Married in pink, your spirits will sink.

Do you have or know of any wedding superstitions...please share?

Happy Planning!
