There are a ton of southern traditions when it comes to weddings. Brides these days often add a mixture of traditional and non-traditional elements to their weddings. Traditional such as a moment of prayer with your wedding party and non-traditional such as seeing your groom for your "first look" before the actual ceremony.
This particular tradition was brought to my attention by my friend Savannah, who is getting married in June!
What the tradition you ask? Burying a bottle of good ol' bourbon to keep the rain away! I couldn't believe I hadn't heard of it before.
According to many believers, to keep the rain away on your wedding day, you are supposed to bury an unopened bottle of bourbon, upside down, exactly one month before the wedding. Some even say you are supposed to bury it in the exact spot of the ceremony.
Since our wedding will be outside, I definitely want to figure out a way to make this happen!
