JUNE BRIDE

Ever wonder where the term "June Bride" comes from?
According to researchers in early 1500's most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, (yes, you read that right! ...YEARLY!) and still smells good by June, however, they were starting to smell so they carried a bouquet of flowers with them to conceal their unwanted odor.(LOL!!)
Month of June was named after Juno, (Roman goddess of marriage, heart and home) the wife of Jupiter. Every couple of course would want to start their life together under her protection.
June is also the month were many flowers bloom. Roses are abundant during this time of the year which is the most loved flower by women.
