Wedding Information
Marriage is a union between a man and a woman, which is recognized by the society in which they live. All governments and all religions have marriage laws. These laws say what form the marriage pledges must take, and what the relationship of husband and wife should be. In most civilized countries and even in some primitive societies, marriage is regarded as a sacred contract to endure for life. Select this link to view our Mouse Couple in a Tea Cup.
Christmas Bells.
In the United States we tend to associate bells both with emergencies and with such joyous occasions as weddings and Christmas celebrations. This association between bells and Christmas can be traced back to the Middle Ages, when Church officials began to use bells for worship and celebration. Medieval European bell customs, in turn, developed out of a wide array of beliefs and practices associated with bells in ancient times. Select this link to view our Miniature Brides Tree Ornaments.

The Wooden Church Crusade
When Germany was divided after World War ll, Baron Henning Von Royk-Lewinski and Richard Kinzer, the former president of Burlington Mills, founded the Wooden Church Crusade, a charitable organization established to build churches in war torn areas of West Germany. It was their goal to build as many churches as there were American States at that time and when completed their efforts resulted in more than 25 churches being built. They wanted the ringing of the bells in these churches to be a reminder to everyone in the Western communities that with God came peace, and the bells would also toll loudly enough to give those across the Eastern border hope for such peace. Every church has become a symbol for the solidarity between the United States of America and former Western Germany in the fight against communism and the fight for peace.

The Tulip
A universal symbol of friendship and spring, the tulip greatly appeals to children of all ages. Legend has it that children who plant tulips in their gardens will be looked after by lovable fairies. The fairies use the tulips for their bloom, which resembles a cradle, to care for their children as they dance and celebrate under the moonlit sky. Also relevant to this cheerful bloom is the German tradition of presenting tulips to one’s romantic interest. This custom reveals one’s desire and passion for the recipient of the blossoms.
