Wedding Veil
摘要:为什么在西方的结婚庆典上,新娘至始至终都戴着面纱?下面的解释可以回答你。
Why does the wedding veil cover the bride\'s face throughout the ceremony in the West? The explanations below are some of the reasons for you.
The custom of the wedding veil should predate wedding dress by centries.One of the explanations for this is that during the times of arranged marriages,the bride\'s face was covered until the groom was committed to her at the ceremony.
So it would be too late for him to run off if he didn\'t like her face.And there is another explanation that the veil was worn to protect the bride from evil spirits that may be floating around her at wedding ceremony.
