Whether it’s a traditional or modern wedding, there are some elements that must be present for it to be considered a wedding: a bride and groom, a Justice of the Peace, wedding bands, a wedding cake, and champagne. And of course, cigars!
Just like handing out cigars to celebrate the birth of a child, no one knows for certain when, why, and how the tradition of including cigars in a wedding came about. But it has been around for many years.
The good thing about cigars at a wedding is that both men and women can enjoy them. Cigars can be handed out during the bachelor and/or bachelorette party. They can be given to the bride and groom as a gift. Or the newlyweds can give them out to members of the wedding court.
Cigars can be enjoyed during the wedding reception. Or afterwards when most of the guests have left. In short, cigars are a wedding staple everyone can enjoy.
If you’re involved in planning the “Big Day,” we suggest you include cigars. And don’t forget the
lighters,
cutters, and
ashtrays.
To help you choose the best cigar for this joyous event, we at Neptune Cigars prepared a list of the best wedding day cigars.
