Wine Glass Find of the Week

Nuernberg Bridal Cup

And now, for something completely different...

I recently witnessed this tradition at my friend’s wedding in April. Since her father is German it seemed fitting. The beautifully crafted cup allows the bride and groom to toast to their wedding from the same vessel. A memory that all their guests will certainly not forget either. Can you figure it out?

This German wedding tradition started way back in 1450 and represents the start of a life long union between man and woman and is a symbol of faithfulness and good luck.

Here’s the link if you’d like to read the actual history behind the cup… Quite interesting!
