- The day before Ash Wednesday was called Shrove Tuesday.
That night was called Sceiligs night.
It was also called Pancake night.
Shrove Tuesday was the greatest day of the year for marriages.
About five weeks before Shrove Tuesday was called the Shrove period.
It often happened that there were up to twenty marriages in the country churches on Shrove Tuesday.
The weddings at that time were very large and often there were up to forty cars at a wedding.
The cars used at that time were covered cars for the bride and side cars.
On the day of the wedding the Bridegroom and his friends went to the bride's house and enjoyed themselves there by eating and drinking and dancing until the hour appointed to go to the church.
