The Bridal Veil Tradition
One of the longstanding bridal practices is the bridal veil. The use of the bridal veil is one of the timeless practices during ceremonies. Along with the oldest bridal practices, wearing a bridal veil is still apparent. It still remains valued by brides that the veil is part of the plan when they have their bridal dresses designed. Story has it that the veil’s purpose is to ward away the evil spirits that may do harm before she is delivered to her husband. Over time, the symbolism of the bride’s goodness is attached to the veil. Moreover, it sends an assurance to the groom’s family that she is decent for the husband. During the ceremony, the meaning of lifting the veil aside from showing her to the family is letting the groom have possession over his wife.
