Something borrowed, something blue, something old, and something new. This is just one of many common yet quirky Western wedding traditions. This infographic, published by Home Away, illustrates a number of common and quirky wedding traditions celebrated throughout the ages. Many traditions have carried on from olden times to the present, but others, like the bride carrying garlic or herbs to ward off evil, have fallen by the wayside. The infographic also shares interesting facts like the average cost of a modern wedding and wedding cake, and the origins of the term “honeymoon” (hint: it has to do with honeywine).
