Re: How is everyone incorporating eathothers cultures in the wedding?

we're both the same(Italian), so pretty much just doing the Tarantella

Re: How is everyone incorporating eathothers cultures in the wedding?

We are both Irish, so all of the guys are wearing kilts.
Also, my FH plays the bagpipes as well as many people in my family, so he and his band and random guests will all play the pipes and drums during the reception.

I already told the photog to try to have all of the pics waist up after '****'tail hour...god only knows who's kilts will be in the air!!!

Re: How is everyone incorporating eathothers cultures in the wedding?

I'm black and my FH is Puerto RIcan so to incorporate both cultures my FH is dancing to a spanish song with his mom for the mother/son dance. We are having a spanish dj who can mix in both english and spanish and hip hop songs. Our venue has an option for spanish appetizers. And of course...we're going to do the ELECTRIC SLIDE!!!

I am dominican and FH is puerto Rican and ecuadorian. For our first dance we are doing a slow dance in english, then cutting into a bachata (dominican) and then a salsa (puerto rican). We are going to playing some cumbia (ecuadorian) through out the reception. So mostly through music and dance I guess.

i'm italian, FH is half irish and italian. we're having a bagpiper play at the church, and i'm having the DJ play a few italian songs at the reception

Re: How is everyone incorporating eathothers cultures in the wedding?

FH is Indian and I'm West Indian; so the only things that are from my culture is the music and food. For FH we have a dhol player (an Indian drummer), I'm doing henna on my hands and feet, and changing into an Indian outfit; as well as, having Indian food.

Re: How is everyone incorporating eathothers cultures in the wedding?

we're both Filipino's but FI grew up here. we're definitely having wedding sponsors for our wedding! (i never knew that the sponsors were a cultural thing until i attended a wedding without sponsors!) the sponsors act as a godfather/godmother to us (and it's an unspoken rule that they give a generou$$ gift. haha. i just love my culture!)

Re: How is everyone incorporating eathothers cultures in the wedding?

we're both irish and italian... other than songs were not really doing much to incorporate our cultures...
