Day 1: Pre Wedding Ceremony

On this day, Hippolyta will spend her day with her mother, female relatives, and friends preparing for her wedding.  This is similar to a bachelorette party in today's culture, though there was a lot less partying. They will also have a feast, held at Hippolyta's Father's house.  She will make various offerings to the gods, and even cut off a lock of her hair. The hair would be dedicated to a god, signifying her transition from childhood to womanhood.
