What is a Welsh marriage custom?

Welsh Spoons

Welsh men spent a great deal of time at sea. While away from home, they would carve "love spoons" from a single piece of wood, carving symbolic images and designs such as love, faith, devotion, etc.. When the man came home from sea, he would give the spoon to the woman he wanted to marry.
