The tradition of Chimney Sweeps kissing the bride for good luck started about 200 years ago after a London Chimney Sweeper saved the life of King George III. The sweep had been the only person brave enough to stop the King's out of control horses and carriage.

By Royal Decree the King proclaimed that all sweeps are good luck bearers and should be treated with respect. The folk law was established and to this day Chimney Sweepers are still invited to attend weddings and kiss the bride for good luck.
Rob is happy be booked to attend weddings to bring the happy couple good luck.
