Wedding receptions

It is customary for the bride to throw her bouquet away at her
reception. The lady who catches it is said to be the next one to
marry. A friend of mine is getting married on May 2 and all of us
are predicting that another friend of ours named Bridget (who is
the last of us to be married) will be the one to catch the
bouquet.

Submitter comment: Hopefully she will be the one to marry next.
