The wedding ceremony is one of the most wonderful and unforgettable moments for the newlyweds, their family and friends. The ceremony is accompanied by many joyous wedding customs, and one to commence them is the famous greeting with bread and salt. Parents standing in the doorway of the wedding palace welcome the newlyweds with this characteristic refreshment and offer their wishes.
This historic Polish custom became a part of the wedding tradition in the sixteenth century. The wedding bread symbolizes wisdom, hospitality, fertility as well as prosperity and abundance. Attributed to salt was the purifying power and protection from corruption. In the past, it was considered extremely valuable commodity and a symbol of prosperity.
