CAKE NOOGIE - Wedding Traditions

Ladies & Tangents
About this episode

We love a wedding. The dress, the flowers, the demon threatening the purity of the bride. So romantic. What...you didn't realize that so many wedding traditions centered around keeping the bride safe from harmful spirits? In true Ladies & Tangents fashion, we decided to ask "why?" when it comes to wedding traditions and we're so excited to share all of our findings with you!
