Amish Myth Busting: Separating Fact from Fiction in Amish Life
Where Do They Spend Wedding Nights?
Guessing where newlyweds spend their wedding nights is a tricky affair. They typically stay at the bride’s parents’ home the night after their wedding, as required by tradition. After this, couples often spend several weekends visiting relatives and friends. This practice called “visiting,” strengthens community bonds and introduces the newlyweds to extended family.
These visits are significant, as they reinforce relationships and integrate the couple into their social network. The newlyweds’ time spent visiting is crucial for maintaining their close-knit community and emphasizing the importance of family and fellowship. Marriage approval comes from church leaders and parents, ensuring the union aligns with community values.
