The wedding kiss is not a moment; it’s the moment. A consummation of vows, emotions, and promises sealed with love. This kiss is the first chapter in your happily-ever-after, and it truly deserves to be just as magical as the journey on which you are about to embark. But have you ever stopped and wondered at the stories that this tradition holds, or just how to make yours uniquely unforgettable? Let us take you through some history of the wedding kiss, inspire you with some romantic ideas, and show how BW Weddings can capture this cherished moment in a beautiful manner.
History of the Wedding Kiss
Thousand of years ago, during ancient Rome, a kiss was much more than an act of affection-far more than a kiss. It was an agreement and union in marriage between the two people involved, who would seal the bond through their kiss. This custom took on a much deeper even spiritual meaning later on in history.
The Kiss (1896) The “kiss of peace” was to find its way into Christian rites during the Middle Ages, as a seal of divine blessings and unity. And now, the wedding kiss is one of joyful love today, in front of family and friends, the highlight of the big day. Such history reminds us that more than a ritual, a wedding kiss is a timeless symbol of love, commitment, and togetherness.
