Weddings and the Number Seven

Tomorrow is the big day for weddings. The date 7/7/7 offers the best possible omen for a long and happy marriage.

That’s really no surprise, according to this article. Lucky number seven plays a significant role in many religions. The bible recounts a seven day creation, a Jewish wedding has the bride circling the groom seven times, and Islamic pilgrims circle the shrine in Mecca seven times.

If you haven’t already booked a wedding chances are you won’t be able to. Even in Las Vegas, the world capital of last minute nuptials, the wedders are declaring July 7, 2007 the busiest day that they’ve seen in decades.

So congratulations all you happy couples! May the happy omen of 7/7/7 bless your marriage.
