Love Locks

We had a wonderful couple this summer and they introduced us to the idea of Lover’s Bridge.  We always check on the bride while she is getting ready and love to hear about the couple’s gift exchange.  This bride showed us this adorable personalized lock and key set that the groom had given her.  We had no idea of the story, but will share it with you.  They were honeymooning in Paris so it was a perfect touch.

Paris is known as the ‘City for Lovers’; .some years ago, a new fad started when love-struck sweethearts began locking padlocks onto the chain link fence of the Pont des Arts, which crosses from the left bank to the Louvre museum in Paris. The love padlocks, called cadenas d’amour, multiplied until there were thousands of love tokens on the bridge, each engraved with a message of love. After locking the love padlock onto the fence, lovers toss the keys into the Seine river – a sign of their eternal devotion.

 

 

They say that on this bridge, if the lovers kiss each other, they’ll be happy together forever.
