Weddings are steeped in tradition.  Most of the common wedding traditions we know, like the bride wearing something old, new, borrowed and blue, are distinctly American.  Weddings happen everywhere in the world and as such, there are many beautiful, meaningful wedding customs in other countries.  We enjoyed learning all about them in 45 Fascinating Wedding Traditions from Around the World on Brides.  This quick, fun read gives you a glimpse into other countries' wedding customs.      Some may appeal to you, some may even inspire you to incorporate into your wedding.  Even if a wedding tradition seems odd or downright crazy, remember that despite the differences, we have a lot in common too.  It's all about love and happily ever after!
