Something Old, Something New By Karen Creel, Fri Dec 9th
Something old, something new.... ....something borrowed, something blue, a silver sixpence in hershoe. This well known rhyme is only one of many customs andtraditions associated with the marriage ceremony. It originatesfrom an old English superstition that required the bride tocarry each of these objects with her as she walked down theaisle. Something old symbolized the bride's past and hope for along marriage. Something new, the beginning of the bride andgroom's new life together as husband and wife, somethingborrowed: "borrowing" the happiness of an existing marriage andusing it to start happiness and joy in the couples new marriage.The bride carrying something blue symbolized loyalty andfidelity in the marriage: and a silver sixpence in her shoesymbolized good luck. Today's version of the wedding cake mayhave evolved from the early Roman tradition of breaking breadover the brides' head right after the ceremony. The wheat in thebread symbolized fertility and the crumbs were considered goodluck. The custom of having flowers play a role in the weddingceremony has long been a custom, but herbs have not been used asmuch in today's modern wedding. The symbolic use of herbs andthe herbal theme wedding appears to be undergoing a revival.Every bride wishes for a fairytale wedding, and wants hers to bethe one everyone remembers When you plan a wedding toincorporate herbs, you will create a lifetime of memories foryou and your guests. There are scores of herbs that can bechosen by the bride and groom to express their love for eachother, but there are five herbs that have the longest documentedhistory in wedding ceremonies. Some date as far back as 2,000years. Rosemary: "that's for remembrance". In ancient Greecebrides entwined rosemary with myrtle and hawthorne to styletheir bridal crowns. Rue: "to protect one from evil" Accordingto some eastern European customs, the brides's mother wouldpresent her daughter with a pot of rue she had taken from herown garden, for the daughter to start hers. Myrtle: represents"true love" Myrtle was the herb of the goddess of love, Venus.She used the herb's blossoms to fashion crowns and garlands forher followers to wear. Ivy: "for fidelity". The Roman bride andgroom were given a bough of

these heart shaped leaves andtrailing stems of ivy during the wedding ceremony. Marjoram:"the herb of joy, happiness and marital bliss" Marjoram waswoven into the crowns and nosegays of the bride and herattendents by the ancient Greeks and Romans. Herbs, dried,fresh, and their essential oils can be used before the ceremony,during the wedding itself, and the reception. Invitationsscented with the essential oils of lavender, vanilla, or ylangylang, are some of my favorites. (Place a cotton ball withseveral drops of oil in the corner of the box, not touching thepaper). Herbs can used liberaly in the bride and attendantsbouquets, and the groom and groomsmens boutonnieres. There are anumber of good books with herbal recipes for main dishes, dips,cakes, punches, and teas, that will continue the herbal theme,and the wedding and reception area can be filled with the aromaof diffusing oil, bouquets or pots of fresh herbs, and herbscented candles.
