"Have you ever wondered why your husband carries the wife through the threshold? Some rituals. Hi, I'm Hazely Lopez director of "Hazely Academy of Refinement and Modeling" and I'm here to talk to you about some of those rituals and understanding those wedding rituals. First, first things first, you have to try or at least pretend to cry on your wedding. This is something they used to say in ancient Rome that if you don't cry on your wedding you will have a long life full of tears so make sure you turn that tear down. Also the bridesmaids and groommaids, why? Well in ancient Rome they also used to say that you need at least ten witnesses. So there you go, five for the bride and five for the groom. Also going on a honeymoon. Why are you going on a honeymoon? Well Egyptians used to take them back in then and they used to capture their wives so in order for the in-laws to stay calm and kind of get over the actual fact that they got married that's the reason they would go to a honeymoon so enjoy it. Also carrying your wife through the threshold meant that she would not trip and that way you would be ensured that your long life marriage would be full of straightness and standing up straight and not tripping. I'm Hazely Lopez from "Hazely Academy of Refinement and Modeling" and I wish you all the best of luck in the world for your marriage wedding."
