Traditions are passed from generation to generation by word of mouth. Traditions are followed from ancient time. Some follow them and some don’t. Tradition is present in each part of world, let it be any country. Here are some of the traditions which are still followed by people.

Rain On Your Wedding Day:
Rain on your wedding day symbolizes fertility and cleansing in some cultures.

Seeing Each Other Before Wedding:
This superstition dates back to the time of arranged marriages, when people believed that if the couple saw each other before the ceremony, it would give them a chance to change their minds about the wedding. Today, most of the couples meet each other before wedding and after that give there decision.

Carrying The Bride Over The Threshold:
This superstition began in Medieval Europe where many believed that a bride was extra vulnerable to evil spirits through the soles of her feet. To avoid bringing in any evil spirits, the groom carried the bride into their new home.

A spider on Your wedding dress:
Finding an eight-legged creature on your gorgeous gown might seem like a wedding-day nightmare, but English lore claims that finding a spider in your wedding dress is a good omen.

Breaking Glass:
In Italy, many newlyweds smash a vase or glass at their wedding, and they put a lot of muscle into it, too. The tradition says that however many pieces the glassware breaks into will symbolize how many years they'll be happily married.

Crying on Your wedding Day:
It is supposed to be good luck for the bride to cry on her wedding day because it symbolizes that she has shed all her tears and will not have any to shed during her marriage. So go ahead and get teary-eyed. Just be sure to wear some waterproof mascara.

Bride & Groom’s Hands Tied:
In many cultures around the world -- including Celtic, Hindu and Egyptian weddings -- the hands of a bride and groom are literally tied together to demonstrate the couple's commitment to each other and their new bond as a married couple (giving us the popular phrase "tying the knot").

Engagement & Wedding Rings:
Engagement and wedding rings are worn on the fourth finger of the left hand because it was once thought that a vein in that finger led directly to the heart.
