Sealed with a kiss!

A time-honoured-tradition that goes back to the days of ancient Rome!

Kissing at the end of a wedding ceremony is not a legal requirement but it does have its origins in contract law!  In ancient Rome, an age of widespread illiteracy, a kiss was used to seal a contract or an agreement.  To get married, a couple would kiss in front of the assembled crowd – they literally ‘sealed the deal with a kiss’.  Today this very old wedding tradition is often the most captured part of a ceremony!
