The Krevatia which is also known as the Bed Making Ceremony or the Flipping of the Baby is a Greek wedding tradition which blesses the marital bed and the couples fertility.
There are many different ways of having a Krevatia. Some do it on the wedding day and others a couple days before or even a couple of weeks before. Some say that it should always be done on the Wednesday before the wedding and that the Bride and Groom are not allowed to sleep in the bed until their wedding night.
The bridesmaids or unmarried female family members and friends of the bride will make the bed three times. Read more about this here (post still to come).
The other female guests sing songs and then throw money, koufeta and rice on the bed as a blessing. If you know any lyrics to songs can you please share your thoughts here (post still to come).
Here is a list of all posts which discuss the Krevatia:
