Q: Who started the trend of brides wearing white? A: Queen Victoria made white the bridal color of choice when she wore it to wed Prince Albert in 1840. Q: Where does the expression "tie the knot" come from? A: "Tying the knot" dates to Roman times, when the bride wore a girdle that was tied in knots - which the groom then had the fun of untying. Q: Which Roman goddess rules over marriage, the hearth and childbirth? A: Juno, queen of heaven and partner to Jupiter (a.k.a Zeus, the king of gods). The month of June takes its name from her, making it most appropriate for weddings. |
