"Wedding traditions and customs vary from one country to another, but each one is special and celebrates the marriage bond of the newly weds", says the opening of the Wedding Page from Topics Online Magazine.

Belgium  Wearing White, Giving Flowers, and Throwing Rice
In my country, the bride always, or almost always, wears a white dress. The man comes to the house of the bride and give her her bouquet of flowers (also in white or other light colors). They go to the church and the man is inside when the father of the bride brings her to her future husband. And at the end, when they come out, the family throws rice on them.
