Seriously?

Call it luck, tradition, whatever...most grooms follow the time honored “seeing my Bride walk down the aisle to me” as part of their ceremony (religious or not).

I have a similar picture of my son praying with his bride just before the wedding. It is a thing of beauty.

I recall a similar photo being circulated a while ago, but the couple was seated. So this isn’t the first of its kind. Still touching.

That is so nice of him to pray with that lady before she gets married to her girlfriend.

OK, now that was funny. Thanks for the levity.

Beautiful! What a wonderful thought, and a memory to treasure, and share with their kids. May God bless and protect them!

Did they break the first commandment? If they believe that it’s bad “luck” to see the bride before the wedding.. Then they did…

I think today it has more to do with tradition than it does superstition.

Seriously? >>

yes, most newscasters stated that he did it because it was “bad luck” to see the bride before the wedding, that’s an affront to God.
