- When the bride and bridegroom are leaving the church rice is thrown on them for luck.
A wedding breakfast is held at the house of the bride. The straw-boys come to the house where the breakfast is held and dance and sing all day and try to steal the bride. Money is given as a fortune. Some years ago cattle were given to the bride.
May is said to be an unlucky month in which to get married.
There is an old saying about May.
"Marry in May and you'll rue the day."
Long ago a barn dance was held on the wedding day.
There is an old rhyme,
Monday for wealth,
Tuesday for health,
Wednesday the best day of all,
Thursday for losses,
Friday for crosses,
And Saturday no day at all.
That was an old saying about getting married.(leanann ar an chéad leathanach eile)- Bailitheoir
