When a girl is getting married she is supposed to wear something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue. A friend of the couple ties a 'blog' to the motor-car or car in which the bride goes to the church. (for luck).
People say that Wednesday is the luckiest day to get married.
People throw rice on the bride & bridegroom coming out of the church.
It is said locally that whoever is the first to kiss the bride's ring will be the next to get married.- Informant
