organized – saying
“goodbye” to the groom

in the church, where the priest performs the wedding
ceremony.

placing a
white cloth
in front of
the bride
and groom

steps on the other’s leg, will
be the ‘’bossy’’ in the family!

performed in the
middle of the
wedding.
Newlyweds turn
back to each
other. Godfather
holds the bread
over their heads.
It is believed
that the one who
breaks off the
bigger part of it
will dominate at

the first flower is ,this will be the child of the

its
identity with the girl
on a lonely woman and
becoming a wife.
