Some of the weirdest wedding customs in the world

In the Philippines, for example, the moment the boy looks for the girl's hand in her family, he also has to do some housework to show his prospective bride's parents that he is able to care for his daughter.

In Sudan, the girl who leaves her home to visit her husband is considered to be an economic loss. So the groom needs to compensate for this “loss” with four cows.

In China, the date of marriage never takes place if the couple do not consult in advance with the astrologer to see which day brings greater luck to them.

In Sweden, the bride's father puts a silver coin in his daughter's left shoe and the mother puts a gold coin in her right shoe. This ritual represents a kind of guarantee that the couple decide on income.
