It varied throughout history and different cultures, but in many societies, a woman was expected to bring a dowry consisting of money, goods, or property to her husband upon marriage. This practice was intended to provide financial security for the bride and ensure her status in the marriage.
The bride price is an amount of money or goods settled on the bride's family by the groom's family, historically, to compensate it for the loss of her labor and fertility within her group of kin. It is still a tradition in parts of the world such and is viewed by many as the purchase and sale of young women by their families.
In native American tribes a bride price or bride wealth is where in arranged marriages the husband to be pays the bride's family money to get married. The bride's family must then accept the husband to be so he can marry.
It is called a dowry.
When giving money to the bride and groom the money should be put in their wedding card under their new married name: Example: John & Jane Doe.When doing this, be certain the bride is intending to change her name to that of her husband. Many women no longer change their names for a large number of reasons.
The families of the bride and groom have refused to release the cost of the wedding.
