Finally came beautiful, warm spring days, ideal for a wedding, the sun shines brightly, dispersing the clouds, and the soul is just as clear and good! And on the other hand, a popular sign says: «Marry in May - toil for the whole century». Therefore, many young couples do not risk a wedding this month. How justified are such fears, let's see.

What to go to a wedding in May

The bride’s outfit is sewn mainly from light, flowing fabric. It is good if she chooses a cropped model for the wedding, emphasizing beautiful legs. Nice shoes, barely noticeable makeup, a hairstyle decorated with fresh flowers - these are light touches to the portrait of the May bride.

The spring suit of the groom is traditionally light shades - gray, brown, beige, blue.

Be sure to decorate it with a bright tie and a boutonniere to match the bride's bouquet.

Lyudmila, 29 years old: «I don’t know if a bad omen played a role, but we parted after a year. Although, in my opinion, this is not a matter of signs. People get divorced often, no matter what month the wedding was. They themselves are to blame. And the mother-in-law also helped us, we lived with her. Young, my advice to you is to get married when you want, but live separately from your parents».

Olga, 30 years old: «Right! It is foolish to blame fate if you yourself have not saved your happiness. We played a wedding in May, and did not regret it a bit. I have the best husband. And I don’t believe that some stupid prejudices can destroy a family».
