2. • Many traditions and customs in Spanish-
speaking countries can be traced back the
influence of Spanish settlers.
• Weddings are big affairs and while some
customs are similar to other cultures, others
are less familiar.
• Some traditions remain a thing of the past,
but a good amount of them are still used
today.
INTRODUCTION
3. • “The evening before the wedding
ceremony, hand lanterns were known to
be used to show the light along the way
from the groom’s house to his bride’s.”
• Once the bride receives her soon-to-be
in-laws, her groom and family will carry
boxes lavishly decorated in lacquer and
red colored cloth represented wealth.
• Tea is then served and advice is traded
between parents and children.
• During this tea party the groom’s mother
opens the box and gives her daughter-in-
law gifts, most often jewelry.
PRE-WEDDING TRADITIONS
http://www.behindthelensmaui.com/traditions-and-customs-
of-the-spanish-and-latin-american-wedding/
4. • Most weddings begin later
in the evening around
7p.m. and continue late on
into the night.
• This time is common in
Spanish events due to the
weather. Avoiding the
midday sun is another
aspect that has to be taken
into account for the
everyone’s comfort, and
well-lit photographs.
¿A QUÉ HORA?
(WHAT TIME?)
http://www.donquijote.org/culture/spain/society/customs/spanis

5. • The wedding dress (vestido de bodas) is an important
aspect of the wedding much like it is in America.
• A dramatic mantilla veil , triangular with lace trim, is a
custom essential in Spain instead of a velo nupcial
(wedding veil.)
• Also in Spain, they traditionally wear a black gown to
symbolize their “til-death devotion.” In recent years white
has become another acceptable color.
• Flamenco-style ruffles at the hem of their gown is also a
traditional style.
PARA LA NOVIA
(FOR THE BRIDE)
http://wedding.theknot.com/wedding-planning/wedding-
customs/articles/a-roundup-of-latin-american-wedding-
7. • While the bride has many
traditions, a groom has a
couple as well.
• A groom from Spain may
wear a guayabera, a
short-sleeved, light shirt
perfect for tropical
temperatures.
• He has 13 gold coins to
be blessed by the priest
before they are given to
the bride.

8. • The bride will receive 13
gold coins, which
represents Jesus and his
12 apostles, known as the
arras.
• These coins are blessed
by the priest before they
are given to the bride with
a promise by the groom to
care, love and support her.
ARRAS, TRECE MONEDAS
(13 COINS)
All sources contained information regarding the Arras tradition.
9. LA PROCESION
(THE PROCESSION)
• Walking the bride down the aisle is
different in every culture, and
country.
• In Argentina, the bride is escorted
down the aisle by her father, much
like in American tradition.
Although she is brought to the
altar by her father, there are no
bridesmaids or groomsmen.
-The only people to stand with
them are their parents and
godparents.
• In Chile, only the couple’s parents
are standing at the altar with them.

10. • Madrinas y Padrinos are tradition
throughout Latin America; chosen by
the parents to guide their children
through engagement and marriage.
• In Mexico, the godparents are essential
to funding the wedding, and overall
supporting the couple both spiritually
and financially.
• The godparents can be chosen at birth
or even marriage, who continue to play
a large role in their wedding and the
rest of their lives.

11. LOS ANILLOS
(THE RINGS)
• Unlike the tradition of waiting
til the wedding day, Chilean
couples wear their rings on
their right hand until they get
married; then they switch to
the left hand.
• Argentinean couples also
exchange rings when they
get engaged.
• In Spain, the alianza
(wedding ring), is worn on
the right hand ring finger.
Information on engagement and weddings
rings came from all sources.
12. ATE EL NUDO (TIE
THE KNOT)
• An interesting tradition in
Guatemala is the binding of the
couple. During the ceremony
they bind themselves together
with a silver rope.
• Mexican couples engage in a
similar ritual, where a rosary, or
white rope, is wound around
their shoulders in a figure eight
to symbolize their union.
• While they are bound the priest
will recite a prayer to bless their
union.http://wedding.theknot.com/wedding-planning/wedding-
customs/articles/a-roundup-of-latin-american-wedding-
traditions.aspx?print=1&MsdVisit=1
13. • Every Spanish country has their own set
of signature foods, so the food at a
wedding is enormously varied.
• Appetizers can be pasteles (pastry),
empanadas (Puerto Rican meat
patties), Spanish tapas (Columbian
pastries with meat and veggies).
• For a honest Latin-American flavor
stations are set up for make-your-own
fajitas or tacos. Other dishes include
