There are many superstitions and old wives’ tales revolving around weddings.

Here is a selection:

Marry in Lent, live to repent.
Monday for wealth, Tuesday for health,
Wednesday the best day of all,
Thursday for losses, Friday for crosses,
Saturday no luck at all!
If you change the name and not the letter, You marry for worse and not for better.
Marry in white, you’ve chosen right,
Marry in blue, your love will be true,
Marry in yellow, ashamed of the fellow,
Marry in red, you’ll wish yourself dead,
Marry in black, you’ll wish yourself back,
Marry in grey, travel away,
Marry in pink, your spirits will sink,
Marry in green, ashamed to be seen.
