| Sharon is partially right, in some cultures it was necessary for the bride's father to provide the new husband with mead (an alchoholic drink made from honey) for the first month of the marriage. The point was probably to help him get over the fact that he was married.......... |

| The term "honeymoon" is derived from the Babylonians who declared mead, a honey-flavored wine, the official wedding drink, stipulating that the bride's parents be required to keep the groom supplied with the drink for the month following the wedding. |
