Swiss wedding traditions
Some brides in Switzerland still follow the tradition of wearing a wedding wreath of flowers. The custom was to burn the wreath after the ceremony, and if it burned quickly, the couple would have good luck. This photo is of a wreath for a wedding in Basel Switzerland.
Basel Switzerland
The start of a cruise down the Rhine on Viking River Cruises. Basel is a lovely city – can’t wait for the cruise to start to see more of this area. A week of wine and castles!
