Veiled Remarks

I was doing my usual daily tour of my favorite wedding websites and came across this unusual advertisement on Once Wed.

I thought the little subtitle was quirky and stylish so I clicked it which led to her website.

Melissa is an author of a book (same title as above) which contains a gazillion of funny and unusual facts about the history of weddings.

According to the homepage, back in the day after a bride a groom was wed, the groom would stand at his bride's side, her hand in his left and his sword in his right to fight off any of her family members that had gone postal and tried to steal her back.

There's not much on her website, but what's there is cool.

Another thingy off her blog features interviews with children to find out their definitions of marriage.

7. IS IT BETTER TO BE SINGLE OR MARRIED?

It's better for girls to be single but not for boys. Boys need someone
to clean up after them. -- Anita, age 9

9. HOW WOULD YOU MAKE A MARRIAGE WORK?
Tell your wife that she looks pretty, even if she looks like a dump
truck. -- Ricky , age 10
