A wooden box in the shape of a heart with a glass cover on top, containing wedding crowns and ribbons. It was a tradition that wedding crowns were kept by the couple in their home. In the box were also placed ribbons with the signatures of the best men and bridesmaids. It was believed that the box should be placed somewhere safe and not be moved. Each move would cause a quarrel amongst the couple!!
