- Marriages take place most frequently during Shrove-tide in this district. It is customary that the wedding-feast should take place at the bride's residence, and that the parties should be married in the bride's parochial Church.
During the wedding-feast "straw-boys" sometimes come in and add to the merriment. After some hours enjoyment the newly married couple go to some city, such as the Capital in the hope of spending an enjoyable honey-moon.
There are certain periods of the year that are considered unlucky for marriage. The months of July and August are among those as well as Wednesdays and Fridays.- Informant
