Put a Cap on Him

Put-a-Cap-on-Him

Blindfolding the groom is a common custom in Estonian weddings.

Do you know: Only the groom and men at the wedding carry out the blindfold tradition in Estonia.

After the wedding, the groom in Estonia is blindfolded at his own reception and single men are made to stand around him. The groom is spun around a bit and then made to try and place a cap on one of the men’s head. The man on whose head the cap is placed is said to be the one to marry next.
