Amish Myth Busting: Separating Fact from Fiction in Amish Life
A Different Wedding Style
Amish wedding traditions are unique and deeply rooted in their values. The ceremony lasts several hours and is typically held on a Tuesday or Thursday. The bride wears a simple, homemade blue dress with a bonnet, symbolizing modesty and humility. Meanwhile, the groom doesn’t give diamonds or jewelry, reflecting their belief in simplicity and practicality.
Marriages aren’t based on wealth but on mutual respect, shared faith, and pure love. Wealth isn’t a priority because their community values hard work and frugality. Instead, everyone focuses on building a robust and supportive partnership. These traditions emphasize their commitment to faith, community, and a humble way of life.
