There a quite a few wildest wedding traditions from around the globe.

In Kenya, the Father-of-the-Bride spits on the breasts and face of his daughter before the Wedding. The Bride’s head is also shaved and lamb fat is rubbed onto her skin. These traditions are said to bring good luck and fortune to the newly married couple.

This tradition is followed among tribes in Kenya.

At a wedding ceremony held by the Massai people, the father of the bride blesses his daughter by spitting on her head and breasts. She then leaves with her husband and does not look back for fear of turning into stone.

Even as there has been a lot of criticism about the ritual by people, the tribes continue to follow it even it.
