There is a delightful Wed
ding Custom which has beeq
practiced in Fdrope for 1 cen
turies, and may even have
had its, origins in ancient his
tory — this is the Marriage
Cup; the very first toast
which is drunk at the Wed
ding Feast abroad, or at the
Wedding Supper in this coun
try, if so desired. There are
several types of Marriage
Cups — made of Sterling,
Silver Plate, or Crystal,
some have two handles and a
swivel top, so that Bride and
Groom can toast their ever
lasting happiness simultan
eously; or each turn; or in
our own country by tying
toast glasses together with a
white satin ribbon, with the
Bride and Groom toasting
each other from their separ
ate but tied glasses. It is the
duty of the Best Man to an
nounce the Wedding Cup
Ceremony.
At Bolland’s, we believe
that every Bride-to-Be should
establish a Master Plan for
her Wedding; a sort of time
table for every single step
along the way — and the best
possible source for the answ
ers to any questions about
customs and proper Wedding
Procedure can be found in
Winifred Gray’s book, “Your
Wedding” — 250 pages of
easy-to-read, carefully illus
trated facts and charts —
beautifully printed and taste
fully bound in rich white

ways.
