Wedding Keepsakes for Very Important Brides

I wonder if many people know about the tradition of giving wedding keepsakes or charms to the Bride for good luck?  Different cultures use different charm shapes as symbols of good luck.

• A horseshoe shape is a traditional keepsake.  Carry the horseshoe with the ‘arms’ turned upwards.  This prevents the ‘good luck’ from spilling out!  Carry the horseshoe with the ‘arms’ turned downwards, the good luck is said to spread everywhere the Bride walks.
• A miniature shoe or slipper shape is also a popular wedding favour.  Also, place a coin in the shoe or slipper for extra good luck!
• Tiny locks and keys are attached to the bridal bouquet.  These little ‘love locks’ make delightful decorations.  Furthermore, they are also safer than attaching a padlock to a bridge or other public structure!
• Another kind of attachment to the bridal bouquet is that of miniature portrait charms of  family members who are not present at the ceremony.  These may include loved ones, who although having passed away, are present, honoured and loved.
