  • The weirdest tradition for me by far, is the insanely stupid amount of money people splurge on it, which they simply don't have or can't afford. Worse of all, it's imposed by other people. As if it's some kind of competition? Nice way to already start your marriage by having a huge debt? It just makes zero sense to me. My view is that it's not up to me to judge how, why and when people want to get legally bonded together. It's their lives, not mine. If I'm invited,great! If not, also great!

    • But you can also view it as one of the great challenges that a couple can go through and learn to compromise. How to spend money? Who is important to who? Planning organizing. I don't think you feel forced to spend money that you don't have but you should talk to your partner about what they want and save towards to that goal.

  • Our wedding $2000. 8 guests at my parents house, catered food, flowers, $60 white dress and $30 blue shoes, and I went to a hair salon for a pretty French chignon. Did my own makeup, we had our own cameras. And we signed our self uniting marriage papers. No officiant needed. Didn't need a dance party or DJ. Just the company of the closest family members related to us. We celebrated with friends when we saw them later on. Saved money to buy a house.

We had a great DJ, catered food with 5 warm meals, fresh flowers everywhere, ballroom, rented car etc. We didn't have one thing - big wedding cake. We paid around 120 $ per person with all that and you double of that. With all the gifts we managed to actually win some money and it wasn't the goal...

  • French, our wedding: 1500€: 1000€ for the restaurant (24people: only close friends and close family), 500€ for our rings (mine -gold- was on sale, and his -silver- was made out of my own concept). No suit for him, just a nice jean shirt. And my dress was handmade, by myself, with jean fabric. Short ceremony at the town hall, restaurant till midnight(no party, no DJ, just an homemade playlist on a usb) and that's it. No photographer either. We did put a box for money (it pais us a quick honeymoon in a fancy hotel in Annecy), no gifts, no weird traditions, except the one for drinking champagne...but it wasn't champagne, it was a local fizzy white wine. Not all weddings are big, not all weddings are expensive... What matters is to do it with people you cherish and who you know cherish you in return. It was 11years ago. Last year, we celebrated our 10years at the restaurant, 28people, 2000€. I do hope we won't spend a thousand more money for our 20th!

  • Here in Southern Germany, the bride is also kidnapped traditionally, but by the groomsmen. They take her to a local bar and drink until the groom comes and finds her. The groom has to do some drinking challenges to free his bride and has to pay the tab for everyone as a ransom. After that everyone is drunk and the party can begin. Or so they say. We opted out of that tradition 🙈

  • Clinking while keeping eye contact is hard. In my country, it is expected to not only do that but also say the name of the other person right before clinking. And boy is it awkward when the other person smiles and calls you by your name but you can't recall the other persons name so you just say "cheers".

  • Npt especially weird... But at my sisters wedding (we are germans) there was an auction for her shoe. My brother made a little play for the guests. Because my sister is a chemist, he said "I accidentally got chemicals on it and now its a toy truck! We need money to turn it back!" and then they went up and down the hall to recieve little donations from the guests. They also had a wedding news magazine... Well, we called it "Hochzeitszeitung" with little stories about the bride and groom and a little quiz and stuff and you could buy it for a donation. It was quite cute. The only thing is: I'm not sure if it's a german tradition or if it comes from the UdSSR, cause my parents (and most of my extended family) grew up there, so some traditions may have got mixed up... I also heard of a cousin who had to pay to get his bride from her "kidnappers" while doing some stuff (if I remember correctly, the money came from the family helping him and all of the money would go to the newlyweds afterwards) And my sister and her husband had to do a few quests like cutting a big heart out of linen and then step through it together (with little scissors to make it more difficult and entertaining) and I heard of a tradition were you have that stuff that lays around after you cut wood with a saw ("Sägespäne" in german) mixed with coins and the pair has to search for all the coins that are spread in the ground. ... Most traditions I heard of are those were money is collected from all the guests and gets then to the pair to have a good start. Or pay off the wedding hopefully. Oh! And one thing I remember vividly was the last dance of the day, where my sister danced with her godfather while the women hold her veil above her. It was into the midnight hour. And I know of the practice to dance the waltz with your significant other and then with your parents and your parents-in-law... I forgot the line up, but something like that. And when all of them danced a bit, everyone is welcome to join. Don't know if that's a german tradition or just a normal thing at a wedding... If I get to marry, I will probably take all the good stuff to enjoy it and have my guests enjoy it. For my family it was always "just family at the wedding" but my sister and brother for example had also friends and coworkers... My extended family is way too big to have them all invited and I see why "a small wedding" is still quite big in numbers... Well, I'm gonna see who will be necessary to be invited and who not, if it gets to it xD And in germany it is also necessary to have the official documents signed at the city hall. Some do only that and party afterwards, without church involved. A cousin of mine did that and partied at another date with a preacher doing the chuchy stuff (without having to be in a church, but the same vibe)... So it comes down to how you like it in the end. Some even marry quite quickly and party afterwards, cause it gives you a discount on taxes if you're officially married. So some do it like in december to have the benefit and the party big in summer or spring or even later~

  • Back in days of old - 1955 - my parents got married at city hall with their best friends as witnesses. Dad's family had a reception two months later and another by mom's family a month after that; the families lived well over 3,000 miles/5000 km apart as airplane flights were not in the budget and this was before the Eisenhower Interstates were built. I'm not sure both families ever met.

  • Kidnapping the bride is common in Austria and at least the southern part of Germany as well. Usually after the meal, in a moment when the the groom is less attentive, some friends will take the bride to a nearby restaurant or bar and continue their celebration there. (It is advised to leave a hint with someone staying with the original party, where they are actually going.) The groom and maybe some of his friends, best man, etc. then must search the bride. As soon as they find the escapees, they may shortly join the remote party, then the groom pays the bar's or restuarant's bill, and everybody returns to the original site.

  • In Austria we also have the tradition of kidnapping the bride. Although here it's called "Braut-stehlen" which translates to "stealing the bride". The thing that is different here is that the groom wont know where the bride is. He dresses up like an elderly lady and looks for his wife. And all that is accompanied by an ensemble of the local brass band who are playing a few "Landler". (those are short traditional pieces of music) When the bride is found the groom can put off the costume of that elderly lady and the party continues until the morning.

And it's considered a mandatory tradition and even if you save the shoes from being stolen, you still have to give money as tradition...

And that girls are virgins when they marry and no longer cost money or insure a family line. Sometimes to hold war at bay. And consitutional weddings for royalty is a whole different ball game, law wise. Weddings weren't, and often still aren't about love and romance in large parts of the world, and in lots of families.

    • There are two ways to give money to someone: Directly or through employment. As long as you're spending money it doesn't matter and paying someone to do something has better results, unless of course they can't work. It's a misconception that money spent on such a wedding doesn't end up to people, because it does through through jobs. Even if it goes through other companies or rich people it still ends up helping people. That's how the economy works. The only problem is when paying a company or an individual who won't spend the money but that's usually not the case. In fact, creating more jobs means that the ratio of working people to jobs improves, which means that salaries go up.

  • I got married a couple of months ago lol Since we’re not from the same country, we got married at the city hall without my family or anyone I know ! In spite of that, I was stressed and hated the entire thing 😂 For sure that wasn’t the happiest day of my life 😂 Don’t get me wrong ! We love each other so much but we hated the idea of weddings ! I find them absolutely useless so here we are ! Happily married without inviting anyone to my “wedding” 😂

  • In Hungary too traditionally kidnap the bride for 1 hour and the groom must find her. :) The bride wears something new, something old, something blue and something borrowed. The groom cannot see the wedding dress before the wedding. female guests are not allowed to wear white clothes, black clothes and often red clothes. The wedding witness often later becomes the godparent of the child that will be born

  • My wife and I had a wedding where only a couple friends attended - my mom couldn't attend (different country), same for her mom and sister, my father and her father already passed away. We spend around 300€ that day at a restaurant (Nuremberg, Germany) and another 1800€ on a party a couple months later with around 50 people attending. 5 years in and we're still going strong. I read somewhere, that the cost of the wedding is anti-proportional to its stability and duration. So who knows.

  • I think the big difference between a US and French wedding is the focus . In France, as you pointed out, the focus is on the quality of food , the reception because you want your guests to be happy and have fun. In the USA, today the focus is way too much on the bride and "her" day , as if all the guests were just an audience , there is emphasis on the bridesmaids' role because they are supposed to be at the service of the bride, hence the " bridezilla" trend on social media.

  • I am Scottish and have been to lots of wedding none had the tradition you mentioned! There are many traditions that you don't see anymore because they aren't practised anymore. I think getting the garter in an American wedding is weird! It seems very improper for the groom to take it off surrounded by family and friends. I saw my sister have it done, and it was uncomfortable to watch! I never got married and been together with my other half for 30 years 😂😂

    • I agree with the garter being awkward. We didn't do that. He wouldn't have suggested it, and I would have been very against it. It's super creepy. I'm a US citizen. Another thing just occurs to me - the "traditional" vows include "love, honor, and obey" and I assure you I would NOT have agreed to "obey." I think it was changed to "love honor and cherish" or something. About 30 years ago.

  • selon les régions en France le mariage varie (pas la cérémonie mais la fête) dans certaines régions (et aussi en fonction des moyens) ça ne dure que quelques heure et fini tard le soir...point final. J'ai personnellement été habitué aux mariages qui durent 2 à 3 jours : vin d'honneur le matin du mariage, avant la cérémonie (comme ça les mariés sont déjà rincés avant la cérémonie) cérémonie (donc en France la mairie et l'église et le petit verre pour monsieur le maire et le curé question de rester dans la tradition) et là on passe à table (oui car il est déjà midi à ce moment là), le repas dure jusqu'aux environs de 18 ou 19h ou il y à toujours quelqu'un (un vieil oncle) qui dit qu'il faut commencer à se préparer pour le repas du soir (l'apéro bien évidemment...mais version mariage), le repas du soir commence aux alentours de 22h (j'avoue il faut un sacré estomac), les mariés disparaissent aux alentours de minuit quand le repas se termine (il faut déjà penser à ranger les plus imbibés de coté) et aux alentour de 3 ou 4h du matin on part à la recherche des mariés pour la soupe à l'oignon (oui à leur recherche car ils se planquent pour éviter d’êtres dérangés pendant qu'il consomment leur mariage...ou qu'ils essayent parce qu'eux aussi sont imbibés). Une grande partie de l'assemblée part se coucher vers 5 ou 6h du matin et se fait réveiller par les gamins aux alentours de 8h, tout le monde prend un café (tellement noir que la cuillère tient debout toute seul dans la tasse mais il y à toujours un tonton qui pense à ouvrir la bouteille qu'il garde depuis quelques années (en général il l'a eu pour son mariage et le contenu est relativement....intense d'un point de vu degré d'alcool) et là on commence à se préparer pour le repas de midi qui se résume au restes de la veille mais il y à la gamelle de fayots sur la table avec les tranches de pain de campagne grillées qu'il faut généreusement beurrer avant d'y rajouter les fayots en question le temps de manger tout ça et la deuxième journée touche déjà à sa fin 23 heure 40 12 le deubième bour se permine quand le tonton propose de terminer sa bouteille (une autre car sa cave en est pleine)...après...je ne sait pas....généralement c'est à ce moment que je déconnecte

  • In the Philippines, during the couple's first dance, guests and sponsors take turns clipping or pinning actual cash, or tokens of their gift, on the bride's dress. Basically, it's for good luck and actual starting fund for the newly weds. This is outside of the boxed wedding gifts. The tokens pinned on the bride's dress can be like a key, representing a car, or a piece of rope, representing a water buffalo (especially if the couple were already gifted with a plot of farm land).

  • Average wedding cost is $30K but the median cost is $20K. The median is a better number to use as the highest cost weddings (which are crazy expensive) affect the average. So, half of all weddings in the US cost less than $20K and the other half cost more.

  • Been to a lot of weddings, most in the U.S. But I have been to a Chinese wedding with a mix of western ceremonies which kinda confused me since majority of the individuals are Chinese. No one other than a few friends who are westerners were invited. The majority of the celebrations are Chinese traditions except for the crying cause that was taken out. But the matching of days of when is best to get married base on both persons lunar birthdates, to giving gifts to your neighbors and friends to tell them you’re getting married, to kidnapping the bride to be from one home to another home and negotiations (which is likely done for show) to then walk the entire way from a village or neighborhood to the place you’d be getting married (granted a lot of places are far when it comes to the countryside, so everyone would take a car after the walk). Three dress changes for the bride while two suit changes for the groom. 1 dress is the western wedding dress, 2 traditional Chinese dress, 3 for the after party. So the events we organized to have bride wear traditional Chinese to then walk down the aisle in white then changed for after party. I’m just glad I haven’t been part of a long see wedding, 3 days was enough.
