That is why we are going to talk about wedding traditions in France.
1.-The four elements:  The idea is that the bride must have four elements at the time of marriage: a former accessory, something borrowed, a new one and a blue one. Family relationships are characterized, respectively, luck, success and finally, the loyalty of the married.
2.- Throw rice:  This ritual is a desire for prosperity and the fertility of the newlyweds and it is that it is a pagan rite of initiating the grain to the spouses for its power of transmission and fertility.
3.- Grajeas: This is one of the most common, guests are offered gifts. These sweets date back to ancient times and have been introduced in France in the 16th century. The very popular monarchs are a symbol of eternal love.
4.- The shot of the bouquet: This tradition has also appeared in the 16th century in France, but it was the male guests who took the bouquet, running behind the bride. Nowadays the bride is on her back, throwing her bouquet and the one who grabs it, is the next one to get married.
The last but not the most common:
5.- Potty Mouth: French brides and grooms traditionally eat chocolate and champagne after the reception but they must consume these treats from a toilet bowl. The point is to give the twosome strength before their wedding night; unfortunately, it might give them something else.
