We do not yet have much information on German weddings. We do not know about any specifically German wedding traditions. Hopefully our German readers will provide us some insights. Most of the images we have seen look rather like weddings in other Western European countries. We have a few German wedding images, but not yet enough to assess German weddings in any detail. Germany was both Protestant and Catholic thus there were a range of traditions involved. I assume that there were major differences between Catholic and Protestant weddings and of course before World War II there were Jewish traditions. We do note children dressed up and performing ceremonies at weddings. We are not sure, however, if these were German traditions or imported from Britain and other countries.
