Jumping
the broom, is a custom that has its roots in African American culture when during the days of slavery, couples
were not legally permitted to marry. As a public announcement and a statement of their
love, a man and woman jumped over a broom pronouncing their entrance into matrimony. The broom acts a symbol of strength, love, togetherness, loyalty,
and respect which is essential for a successful marriage. Each
time you gaze on your broom it will remind you of your new life and commitment to each other as husband
and wife.
Brooms can be decorated
with flowers, feathers, ribbons, fabric, rhinestones, cowrie shells, pearls, sequins and whatever else we can dream of. Let
Chocolate Brooms & Bouquets design your wedding broom, as it will symbolize all that is sacred in your marriage.
Below are just some examples of our brooms. And just think, It can also serve as beautiful wall decor after the wedding ceremony!
