Good Luck! 11 Wedding Traditions for Good Fortune
Posted by In Casa Gifts Party Pros on

You're getting married for all the right reasons - you absolutely adore your spouse-to-be and you can't wait to spend eternity with them. Turning the joy of your wedding into an everlasting relationship takes hard work - and let's face it - a little luck! If you're at all superstitious or just want to make sure you get off to the best start possible, then...
Hindu tradition states that getting married on a rainy day will lead to a stronger marriage. Some say this is because a rainy day is trickier to navigate, and if you can do that successfully on a day as important as your wedding day, surely the rest of the marriage will be smooth sailing. Featured Wedding Accessory: Be prepared for any rainy wedding day with our featured bridal accessories: Parasols and Umbrellas!
Elephants have long been considered to be a symbol of good luck. You can incorporate small elephant statues as part of your reception table decor, or as a fashionable motif on your linens. If you go with elephant figurines, be sure to have it face the entrance of the room, to help ensure that bad luck can't get inside. Also, many believe that the animal's trunk should be up in the air (as opposed to hanging down) to bring good fortune. Featured Wedding Favor: See our Lucky Elephant Ring Holder - a gold electroplated porcelain gift to share with guests!
If the bride is looking for another reason to pamper herself, this is it. In Moroccan culture, the bride is purified before the ceremony with a luxurious milk bath. Can you think of a more relaxing way to start off your wedding day? Featured Wedding Favor: If Moroccan is your theme, your guests will also love something elegant and warm.
