Old House has incorporated a ritual beginning in Rome where young lovers would write their names on a padlock, chain it to the Ponte Milvio Bridge, then throw the keys into the river in a gesture of undying love.

Lovers young and old now have the opportunity to imitate the practice of the now famous Milvian Bridge of Love at Old House. Anyone is welcome to bring a lock and attach it to our Love Lock chains at the dock off the wedding island, celebrating one another, as the keys are released into Old House Lake!

Couples who marry at Old House are given a lock engraved with their names and wedding date. Many incorporate the placing of the lock and throwing of the keys into their wedding ceremony or reception.
