Let’s talk about weddings! What can you expect at a Germany wedding? Is it different to an American wedding?
German weddings have their own traditions, although they aren’t that much different. One of the things I find interesting is that it is mandatory to have a civil ceremony at a registry office, but then people usually have a second one somewhere else which could be at a church.
But there are much more fun traditions, like smashing plates, sawing a tree, kidnappings and more! 😂
In this article, we’re talking everything German weddings. This is perfect whether you’re attending one or you’re just curious.
In the video below, you’ll find out about German weddings from interesting traditions to what age people get married and how marriage rates have varied over time.
