On this soggy Saturday, did you know that if you bury a bottle of bourbon, it will keep the rain away on your wedding day? For it to work, there are a few rules:

- You must bury a full bottle (unlike ours).
- The bottle must be turned upside down.
- You must bury it exactly one month before your wedding day.

You dig it up after your wedding “I do’s” and share it with family, friends, and the venue owners (ok, we made that part up).

At Historic Chelsea we love southern traditions - and we especially love our bourbon - so bury away!
