Description
The tossing of the bouquet is an important and fun wedding tradition, especially for all the single women at a wedding. The assembling of all the single and unmarried women at a wedding for the bouquet toss, according to tradition, signifies that the lucky woman to catch the bouquet will be the next to be married. Whether you believe this or not, it is a great way of entertaining guests and the girl who catches the bouquet will also have a souvenir of the wedding to take home.
The tradition of tossing the bouquet originates from around the 14th century where guests of a wedding would commonly rip a brides garments apart to take home keepsakes, which were considered to bring them good luck.

A fine wedding gift this beautiful photograph would make. Each brides made should have a framed print as well as the bride. V/F

Odd, thank you so much, I had a wedding ceremony shooting, so the atmosphere was obviously very dreamy :-)
