Black Wedding Traditions You May Not Have Heard Of
Knocking on the Door
This wedding tradition has its roots in Ghana and it’s a lot of fun. Soon after the engagement, the future groom and his family buy a few gifts and knock on the door of his fiancee’s family’s house. If “the knock” is accepted, the bride’s family opens the door and welcomes their future in-laws in. Then both families celebrate by going out to brunch or having a small get together at the house.
