Local Customs: A wedding in Speyer

On our walk through Speyer we spotted this car – a beautiful old Cadillac obviously done up for a wedding. Unlike in Britain, where some ribbons and a few flowers would be used to decorate the car, this one had a whole bouquet adorning its bonnet. Looking across at the Rathaus (Town Hall) we could see the wedding party posing for photos by the front entrance.
A little later, on our way back down Maximilianstraße from the cathedral, we heard a loud hooting of car horns, and turned to see the happy couple now parading through the town in their red Cadillac, waving happily to all the shoppers and tourists. What a lovely custom!
