- Local Marriage Customs
Shrove, or Saraft, as it is called in this locality, is the usual period for marriage in this parish. Many people wait until Shrove Tuesday, and several people get married throughout the year, but Saraft is the usual season.
If a marriage takes place on a bright sunny day, the marriage is said to be a lucky marriage, as the old proverb says, "happy for the bride that the sun shines on."Old people have a little rhyme in connection with the days for marriage.
