Revealed: Strange Wedding and Engagement Superstitions

A Rose By Any Other Name

If you are going to be carrying a bouquet at your wedding, make sure to be very careful of the flowers that you pick! Depending on the flowers you pick to carry, you could be bringing either good luck or bad luck into your marriage. Roses are a very popular choice for weddings and with good reason—they symbolize love, and are therefore a fantastic choice for a wedding bouquet!

But you had better beware if you prefer peonies to roses. Peonies might have a beautiful color and a sweet scent, but they could spell bad luck for a wedding. According to the superstition, peonies represent shame, and no bride should be ashamed on her wedding day!
