Horseshoes have always served as good luck charms for many people, Irish brides have brought the custom into their weddings in a couple different ways. One traditional way is to tie a porcelain horseshoe to the bridal bouquet or the brides wrist. Some brides will even stitch a horseshoe charm into her gown to be with her for good luck the entire day. If you're looking for a wedding gift for an Irish couple, a real iron horseshoe for them to hang in their home would be a way to keep the luck with them always.
One word of Irish wisdom though, make sure to always have the open ends turned up so the luck and good fortune won't spill out!!
Slaite!
