Firstly, let’s answer the question “what exactly is a blessing?” A blessing is mercy, benefit, approval. In general, people used to say the blessing before or after a meal, or when they favored someone or something.

They mostly appeal to a High Power, asking for the guard, protection, health, and peace. Speaking about wedding blessings, they don’t differ much. We also ask for all the best, but precisely for the bride and groom, for their marriage, well-being and a bright future.
