Rosemary

As well as being a wonderfully aromatic herb with many culinary uses, Rosemary is also associated with weddings.
Rosemary was often entwined into a wreath dipped in scented water and worn by brides at the alter. The wreath symbolized fidelity, love, abiding friendship and remembrance of the life the woman had left prior to her marriage.

Shakespeare's Hamlet has a part in Rosemary history. His Ophelia says"There's Rosemary, that's for remembrance. Pray you, love, remember!
