Oxford Wedding Traditions
Weddings in Oxford carry local customs that shape the day in ways that generic wedding guides often miss.
Punting on the Cherwell or Isis as a post-ceremony activity for the wedding party is an Oxford tradition that produces remarkable candid photographs of laughing guests in summer finery.
A toast with Oxford's own locally brewed ales from the White Horse Brewery, presented in branded bottles as favours, is a growing tradition at college and city centre venues.
Latin blessings or quotes from historical Oxford scholars in the order of service are a distinctly Oxford touch that many couples incorporate to honour the city's academic heritage.
