WEDDING TOWELS

"You know you're in love when you don't want to fall asleep because reality is finally better than your dreams." — Dr. Seuss

BELARUS

The wedding towel marked the pathway the new couple would follow on their journey into a new life together. Even today the ceremonial towel plays an important part in a Belarus wedding. Gifts are traditionally wrapped in a towel. More importantly, perhaps, is the symbolic tying of members of the groom’s family to members of the bride’s family using towels symbolizing the uniting of the two families. Wedding towels are treasured and are handed down through generations.


BRITAIN

There are no similar traditions.
