Given that we are in the throws of wedding season, it makes sense that this chart showcases different wedding traditions globally. From travel site Cheapflights, the infographic 'Nine Curious Wedding Traditions From Around the World' takes a look at different cultures and unusual ways they celebrate nuptials.
From South Korean wedding ducks to German log cutting, there is a wide variety of strange traditions. While some are silly -- such as cutting the end of one of the groom's socks to represent fidelity -- others can be detrimental to the health of the couple. For example, Tidong newlyweds in Malaysia are put under house arrest and aren't allowed to use the bathroom for three days. If they break the taboo, they believe the marriage will be cursed.
