Ancient Norsemen consumed large amounts of Mead (fermented HONEY) during the first month (moon) after marriage, giving that period immediately following the wedding the title "Honey moon."

In modern times American males consume great quantities of beer following their nuptuals coining the term, "Divorce court."

Dennis,
You poke fun at the institution of marriage, but I can honestly tell you that the best four years of my life were the two before the marriage and the two after the divorce!
