    What is the significance of burying the bourbon? I'm intrigued.

    We are actually in Virginia Smiley smile!!!

    Southern folklore says that if you bury a bottle of bourbon at the site where the bride and groom are to be married it won't rain on their wedding day. According to many believers, this must be done exactly one month before the wedding, the bottle must be completely full, and it must be buried upside down to ensure maximum weather persuasion.

    There are also people that say the burying should be done on a day with weather you'd be happy to have on your wedding day.

    Rain or shine, the bottle should be dug up post-ceremony and enjoyed with the bridal party, making this a win-win tradition no matter the skies. Smiley smile
