1. In Italy, weddings usually start in the morning, ideally on a Sunday. According to regional Italian folklore, you should never marry (or leave for your honeymoon) on a Friday or Tuesday, or you will have lots of bad luck.
In Italy brides don’t bother with make up because in addition to a white dress, they wear a veil. Meanwhile, the groom can carry a piece of iron (preferably a small one) in his pocket to keep evil spirits away.
Traditional Italian brides and grooms forget about the limo and walk to the chapel on foot. In certain villages, people throw symbolic things in your path to see their future as man and wife. After the wedding ceremony, the couple break a glass or vase - the number of pieces represents the amount of years they’ll stay happily married.
The main dish of the Italian wedding is a roasted baby pig or lamb. Confetti -- sugar-covered almonds represent the bitter and sweet of life.
2. The date of a wedding in China depends on your astrologer. Chinese couples may consult a fortune-teller to find a favorable date which depends on their birth dates.
Brides wear a red silk dress that is embroidered with a dragon and phoenix. If you think choosing one dress is tough, take a look at this: Chinese brides buy as many dresses as their budgets allow and change from one to the other throughout the wedding to show that their family is not poor.
On the morning of the big day, loyal bridesmaids get to give a husband-to-be a hard time, forcing him to negotiate his way into the bride’s house. Once the girlfriends are satisfied with his offerings he is let in.
They usually have a 10- to 12-course banquet in China. The most impressive dish served is shark’s soup, which costs $150 per guest. Other delicacies include bird’s nest soup (yes, made from real birds’ nests) and a whole fish!
3. Weddings in Mexico take place in the evening around 9 p.m. The bride wears a brightly colored, Flamenco-style dress. But the groom gets off easy: he wears a guayabera. This light, short-sleeved shirt is not only perfect for tropical temperatures, it’s a Latin symbol of masculine elegance.
During the ceremony, the groom offers his bride 13 gold coins, called arras, which stand for Christ and his apostles. The priest wraps a large rosary, or a band of flowers in a figure eight around the couple to symbolize their eternal unity.
The Food is quite traditional: spicy rice, beans, and tortillas.
4. A liberal bunch, Swedes often decide to marry after living together for a few years, or after the woman is pregnant with their first child. With almost 20 hours of sunlight each day, summer is the most popular wedding season.
A crown belonging to the bride’s family or church, and, although it hardly sounds comfortable, a gold coin in your right shoe and a silver one in your left for good luck.
A seriously old-school tradition forces bridesmaids to carry bouquets of weeds that stink in order to keep trolls away. According to another old tradition, men dance around the bride, trying to knock her crown off, and the one who succeeds will have good luck.
The traditional Swedish smorgasbord (The Swedish table) lasts for three days and can include herring, lingonberry jam and köttbullar (Swedish meatballs).
