If you’re lucky enough to be planning a St. Patrick’s day wedding, you may be inspired to carry through some Irish wedding traditions. While you might not stamp a shamrock on your wedding invitations or don a green gown, the Irish offer some appealing traditions just like many other wedding cultures around the globe.
For starters, marrying on St. Patrick’s day is considered lucky in Ireland. And, there are a few Irish wedding traditions you could easily include in your special day:
Blue dress
Blue was the traditional color of purity in Ireland, so a very stylish statement could be the palest shade of blue in your gown, a blue sash, or dressing your bridesmaids in blue.
English Lavender
These fragrant, lovely flowers make beautiful bouquets but were commonly included in the bride’s bouquet as well. Lavender symbolized love, loyalty and devotion for the Irish.
Braids
With braids making a stylish comeback for today’s brides, you would not be outdated at all to wear this traditional Irish symbol of feminine power.
