The tradition of the honeymoon comes from the time when the
groom would kidnap his bride-to-be and carry her of to a secret hiding place where he
would keep her for a set period of time when depending on the laws/traditions the
ownership would pass on to him.Honeymoon
derives from Honey which
is a mead drink the bride would drink (believed to increase fertility) and Moon some believed that a
wedding under a full moon would bring good fortune to both families. |
