       The Nigeria Wedding Broom

The straws on the Nigeria wedding broom are imported from Nigeria, Africa and designed by Catherine J. Broussard

The Wedding Broom stands as a symbol of devotion by which our ancestors recreated this passage under adverse conditions. It is an act of remembrance so couples never forget the struggles of the past which have made us the strong people we are today.

Out of creativity came the tradition of Jumping the broom". Jumping the broom represents the beginning of housekeeping and  represents two people joining together in the eyes of the Lord.
