On this day in 1810 Prince Ludwig of Bavaria wed Princess Theresa of Saxony-Hildburghausen. The Prince was so pleased that he invited the entire kingdom to join in the reception. Embracing the party with wild enthusiasm, the celebration has continued each year since and is known as Oktoberfest. June is the most popular month for weddings and it also hosts the Mountain Brewers Beer Fest next held on June 5, 2021; plan on attending.
