Shrove Tuesday night any time before 12 oclock Monday and Wednesday being the lucky days. It was considered unlucky to marry between the scythe and the hook that was from July till October.
The man was anxious to get a dowry at least as good as his father got before or his mother would despise the young bride. This was all settled before the wedding at at the match-making. They celebrated with great feasting and dancing, straw boys would attend and sometimes rise trouble and refuse to go with-out refreshments or money.
