In St Petersburg we saw MANY newlyweds around the city. Tradition calls for the groom to carry the bride over seven bridges for good luck. I noticed that the bridesmaid and best man wore a sash and white was not a "must do" for the bride. Each couple had a limo decorated appropriately to cart them to the different bridgesin town and to drink wine along the way seemed to be the norm - as you know, we are counting down the days to Joey and Shelly's wedding! Does your family have any special traditions that you do to celebrate weddings?
