"Bride" is an archaic form of the name "Brigid," one of the great pagan Goddesses of Ireland. Brigid was later "Christianized" and turned into one of the Catholic saints, who founded a double monastary and convent in Cill-Dara. "Bride Dara" is therefore a sort of shorthand way of saying "Brigid of Dara."
Many of the myths surrounding the Goddess Brigid were tacked on to the saint by the common Irish people. One of these stories is of the death of Brigid's son. The story says that she invented keening while mourning the death of her son on the battlefield. This is the origin of Maura's allusion.

One welsh tradition is that the groom carves a wedding spoon before the wedding day to be presented to the bride. The Bride is kidnapped by the bride's family before the wedding day, the person from the groom's family who finds the bride is set to get married within a year! The bridal bouquet contains Myrtle & a cutting of it is given to the BM's and will bring wealth & happiness - the BM then plants the cutting & if it blooms it is a good sign! A pin should be hidden somewhere in the bride's attire & thrown over the shoulder for good luck.
