Mayo

Leap Day is a tradition that goes back centuries, where a woman is ‘allowed’ to propose to a man - while no woman needs permission to pop the question, it remains a sweet tradition

According to tradition, women are only allowed to propose every four years – on a leap year.

Since then, leap day has evolved into a tradition that continues for the entire year. Mind you, women no longer need to wait for a special occasion in order to take things into their own hands. Still, many enjoy the custom of days gone by. Sharon proposed to her husband of 32 years, Edward, back in 1992. Edward, of course, said yes but there was one condition: it was Sharon’s job to organise the wedding!

“I said no as I might not like the answer and Ed said, ‘You won’t know unless you ask’. I got down on one knee in front of all our friends and asked him to be my husband and his answer was yes as long as I organised the wedding!
