    In the sixteenth century most people got married in June because they took their yearly bath in May, and they still smelled pretty good by June... However, since they were starting to smell...brides carried a bouquet of flowers to hide the body odor.
    Hence the custom today of carrying a bouquet when getting married.

    True or false

    During even earlier times of "primitive marriage," when the fear of demons was most prevalent, the brides carried stinking garlands of herbs and spices for the purpose of frightening off evil spirits.

    False. The bride carries a bouquet up the aisle to conceal her raging hard on.
