What is the origin of the bride's bouquet?
The custom of holding flowers comes from the west, and now we also adopt this very romantic wedding ceremony. But to investigate the origin of its tradition, we need to talk about western habits. In ancient times, westerners thought that fragrant things could protect people from diseases, such as spices, herbs and even garlic. All along, anything with a strong smell has the function of exorcising evil spirits and avoiding harm. This statement is also reflected in the wedding, which is the original origin of the bride holding fragrant flowers, in order to bless every guest at the wedding scene, but also to bless the couple themselves and avoid the bad luck of illness. However, in the process of spreading, this custom gained more meanings. The most popular saying now is that an unmarried woman will be blessed and become the next bride to get married when she receives a bouquet thrown by the bride at the wedding.
