Something old, something new, something borrowed, and... a very lucky chimney sweep? 🧹
If you see a Victorian-garbed sweep pop out after the vows, don’t panic!!! ☺️
It’s actually a 200-year-old British tradition meant to bring a lifetime of good fortune!
Legend says King George III declared all chimney sweeps "lucky" after one bravely stepped out of the crowd to stop his runaway horse and carriage.
To lock in the good vibes, the traditional wedding ritual includes:
A kiss on the cheek for the bride 💋
A firm handshake for the groom 🤝
A tiny dusting of soot left on the dress or hand for prosperity 🧹
With 39 years of weddings & civil ceremonies behind us, we know a thing or two about traditions, romance… and making a wedding day unforgettable 💍💕
