3. Local Marriage Customs

   

   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   Marriages usually take place in Spring and harvest. The unlucky marriage month is May and the unlucky days are Sunday, Friday and Saturday. If a girl is the first to cut a childs hair it is said that she will be married at the next shrove. Shrove time starts on January the sixth and ends the first day of lent. Marriages are made in my district. Money is sometimes given. Goods or stock are never given. On the marriage day rice is thrown on the groom and bride for good luck. If the husband is first into the house after his marriage it is said that he will live the longest and if the wife is first in she will live the longest. The marriage feast or wedding is usually held in the brides house. Straw boys visit the house. They dress in large straw hats and they do not like to be recognised. A man dressed like a girl goes with them and also a captain. The man dressed as a girl dances with the groom and the captain dances with the bride. Straw boys are supposed not to be entertained.
