The History of Bridesmaid


During a wedding, a bride chooses close friends or her sister to participate in her ceremony as a bridesmaid. When it comes to the origin of the bridesmaid, it can date back to the ancient Anglo Saxons. They always began a wedding with bridesmaids leading Groomsman leading the Bride. Roman law once required witnesses to come to weddings to confuse evil spirits.

In order to outsmart the evil spirits that were believed to attend the wedding the bridesmaids would dress identical to the bride. The bridesmaid, in contemporary times, assists the bride with anything the latter needs relating to her wedding day. With time approaching, the concept of bridesmaid has somewhat changed, but it still has its fairy tale color and significant meaning. The maid of honor has become the indispensable role in the wedding ceremony.
