  • Planning the Celebrations Before and After the Main Event
    PLANNING THE CELEBRATIONS BEFORE AND AFTER THE MAIN EVENT The Shower A symbol of the dowry that a woman once brought to her marriage, the purpose of a shower is to help a couple outfit their new home or assemble a trousseau. It was traditionally an all-female afternoon tea or luncheon. Not anymore. Friends, bridesmaids, maid of honor, or even the best man might throw a single-sex or coed party, often for the bride and groom. There may be more than one shower during an engagement. Showers tend to be informal, held in a home, restaurant, or hotel. They are most often a lunch, but might be a brunch or a barbecue; they may feature party games, or might even be a coed cocktail party. Shower guests should be those close relatives and friends who will also be invited to the wedding. However, not all the guests may be invited to the wedding if it is a work or school related shower. Not every shower has to go the traditional route of a chicken salad and fruit luncheon. They can have fun, modern themes by highlighting the special interests and/or hobbies of the couple or the bride, such as: A Garden Party with a flower or plant theme, seed packet favors or invitations, fresh vegetable dishes on the menu including Caprese salad, ratatouille, fresh fruit, and pasta with asparagus. Gifts might include gardening supplies such as water cans, a rosebush, sundial, gardening clogs, or lawn furniture. The Wedding Night with “Do Not Disturb” signs as invitations. Include champagne, fine cheeses, breads, and chocolates.

  • The Role of Costuming in Two Pre-Wedding Rituals for Women in Northern Scotland
    The Role of Costuming in Two Pre-wedding Rituals for Women in Northern Scotland The Role of Costuming in Two Pre-wedding Rituals for Women in Northern Scotland Sheila M. Young Elphinstone Institute University of Aberdeen Scotland Abstract The blackening and the hen party are two pre-wedding rituals for women. The blackening has its roots in a feet washing ceremony, which although once widespread across Scotland is now generally found in rural areas in Northern Scotland. The hen party is a more recent urban phenomenon, enjoying unprecedented popularity. These two rites of passage appear to co-exist happily. Shukla (2005) notes that “successful transitions between life stages are not only socially relevant, they are personally significant milestones, visibly marked by a change in bodily presentation.” This paper will explore that “change in bodily presentation” by examining the role costume plays in the blackening and hen-party rituals. There is a huge variety in what the bride and her attendants wear, where the ritual dressing takes place, and at what point during the proceedings. I will show that the purpose of dress and adornment in each of these rituals is varied, from singling out the bride and making a statement, through to establishing group identity. Furthermore, the purposes have changed through time, significantly in the case of the hen party. Setting the scene his paper explores the role played by costume in two pre-wedding rituals practiced by women in Northern Scotland, the blackening and hen party, and how that role has changed since the 1940s. Costuming is just one of many significant Telements, such as organisation and planning, journeying, games, eating and drinking, and gifting, in the two events that I explored as part of my doctoral research.

  • Lesson 13: Ritual
    Lesson 13: Ritual In previous lessons I touched on Ritual and it's use. In this lesson we will look at ritual in depth, including one of the best examples of ritual I have seen. Let's start with some basics: (please note that I am taking part of this from another lesson I prepared previously. I have revised this slightly and corrected a few inaccurate statements.) One thing that I want to stress as we get into this is, you can't really screw up a ritual. About all you can do is make it meaningless or knock yourself out of the "mood". There is nothing (unless you are doing a spell) that you can do to really screw things up, so don't worry. Relax. Ritual serves the same purpose as myth. It is a language of symbols, frequently those symbols will be the same ones that you have on your altar, in your directions, and that you use in your divination. In and of themselves, doing the rites and rituals don't mean anything. The only meaning there is what YOU as the participant or conductor bring to it. That's all. So, if the ritual has no meaning, why do it? Simple, it serves the same purpose that every other symbol serves. It's an outward expression of an inward state. It is a concrete representation of what you wish to bring to be. For example, you want to celebrate the Lord and Lady. So, you decorate the Altar with symbols representing the time of year, the way you feel about Them, what you wish to give them, and so on, and your ritual is centered around giving your Love to Them and making Them feel appreciated.
