ANSWER:

IN MEDIEVAL TIMES, THE GROOM MOST OFTEN PAY FOR THE BRIDE'S HAND IN MARRIAGE.

2.     ( C )  USED TO DRIVE AWAY EVIL SPIRITS

BEFORE FLOWERS WERE USED, WOMEN CARRIED AROMATIC BUNCHES OF GARLIC AND HERBS TO DRIVE AWAY EVIL SPIRITS AS THEY WALKED DOWN THE AISLE. OVER TIME, FLOWERS REPLACE THEM AS THEY SYMBOLIZED FERTILITY AND EVERLASTING LOVE.

BEFORE THE CAKE WAS NOT EATEN BUT ACTUALLY THROWN AT THE BRIDE. IT WAS A FERTILITY TRADITION SURROUNDED THE WEDDING.

COMPLETE SET OF FEET

Our feet works harder than what we think of. It brings us to lovely places we never been to. The feet carry our body weight all day out all day in. Though tired but never complained.   I was reminded of the song "Foot Prints On The Sands." Where most of the time the songwriter always noticed that there are two sets of footprints on the sand. Suddenly, the lowest point of his time came, at his amazement, there were only one set of footprints on the sands. He complained, because he thought God leave him. A voice from heaven was heard, "My son I never leave you. Yes, there was only one set of footprints on the sand the reason for that is that I carry you." This true to life story made me think that the complete set of feet is not one but two and we must always think this way.
