Walk through a Moongate…

It is said that if a Bride and Groom walk through a moon gate while holding hands on their wedding day, it will bring them good luck and everlasting happiness in their marriage.

Ride in a horse-drawn carriage…

As this was once the only means of transportation, the Bride and Groom would travel to and from their Wedding in a horse drawn carriage. This also makes a fantastic photo opportunity.

Plant a Cedar Tree…

Many couples plant a cedar tree as a way to memorialize their special day and represent strength in their marriage as the tree continues to grow each year.

Have two cakes…

A Bride's cake and a Groom's cake!

The bride’s cake is typically a traditional tiered fruitcake covered in silver leafing, which represents fertility and purity, the Groom’s, a pound cake covered in gold leafing, represents wealth and prosperity.

Each is adorned with a tiny cedar sapling on the top.

Get married on a Thursday…

Weddings were traditionally held on Thursdays as many Bermudians had the afternoons off, leaving the remainder of the day to celebrate with family and friends.
