Tip of the Week

There are many ancient beliefs surrounding Irish weddings. For example - Wednesday was believed to be the luckiest day to get married on while Saturday was seen as unlucky; Green was an unlucky colour to wear at a wedding (the ancient Irish believed that the faeries would ´get´ you if you wore green and steal you away to the underworld!); and, if the mother-in-law broke a piece of cake over the bride´s head as she entered the marriage home it was said that the 2 women would remain friends for life!

These are just some of the many Irish superstitions that surround getting married!
