Traditionally horseshoes were given by flowergirls, bridesmaids or young children, to the bride after the wedding ceremony as the perfect gift to commemorate their role in the brides special day. They would have been handed to the bride at the end of the ceremony, when she was given back her bouquet after the service. Then carried as the couple take their first walk together down the aisle, ready for the photos, then displayed at the side of the cake. Horseshoes were believed to be a symbol of fertility and were given for good luck.
Now they are simply a lovely tradition that has become fashionable again to give to symbolise good luck to the newlyweds for the duration of their lives together. The horseshoe is a symbol of good luck in many cultures.
The horseshoe comes with a long satin ribbon so it can easily be held with a bouquet. There's a choice of ribbon and print colours.
