It was described as a new idea from America, essentially the first Bridal Book or scrapbook, where brides could collect mementos from their wedding and honeymoon.
A new idea from America, the land of new ideas, is the Bridal Book.
A Bridal Book wherein shall be set pieces of the trousseau, flowers from the Bridal Bouquet, flowers from the chancel, pieces of white women that had fenced off the Bridal Pews from the common crowd, the cover of the wedding ring box torn from its border, lace from the cake boxes, bills of fare from the various hotels at which the new wedding stops, time tables, the hairdressers, the tailors, hotel bills...
So it is a bunch of keepsakes in a scrapbook basically.
