epithalamion is a bridal ode

Hey, I'm not sure what your question is but yes it is a bridal ode. Epithalamion refers to a form of poem that is written specifically for the bride on the way to her marital chamber. This form continued in popularity through the history of the classical world; the Roman poet Catullus wrote a famous epithalamium, which was translated from or at least inspired by a now-lost work of Sappho.
