Burying the Bourbon.
I have to admit, this tradition is not one I had ever heard of before. It is a uniquely southern tradition & I’m shocked that I’d never heard of it before, especially given my family’s affinity for the sweet, dark liquor.
Southerners believe that if you bury a bottle of bourbon at the site of your wedding exactly 1 month before your big day, you will keep the rain away and have beautiful weather. If you live here in Alabama, then you know how crucial this is. Our weather is straight out of crazy-town and you never know what you’re going to get. So, head to the liquor store and bring out your shovels, ladies, it’s time ta get ta diggin’.
