Why do Couples Create a Wedding Video Guestbook for Video Messages?

Wedding Fun Fact 1: Did you know that the first recorded evidence of marriage ceremonies uniting one woman and one man dates back to about 2350 B.C. in Mesopotamia? It's an ancient institution that has stood the test of time.

Wedding Fun Fact 2: In the month leading up to their wedding, Tujia brides cry for an hour each day. Ten days into this ritual, the bride's mother joins in, and ten days after that, the grandmother adds her tears. Eventually, other female family members join this emotional chorus. It's a poignant symbol of the journey to matrimony.

So, when you consider an institution that has lasted for over 4,372 years and involves such heartfelt traditions, it's clear that it deserves to be celebrated with the utmost love and respect – and, of course, a lot of fun!
