Wedding traditions??

Is anyone incorporating any sort of cultural tradition to their wedding??

We will have a bagpiper at the church and we specially ordered Guiness for the reception (FH request of course). We will also be serving kelbasa and saurkraut to represent FH's Polish side and corned beef for the Irish side at the cocktail hour. Im sure there will be other touches added later on...

Hey, I am Russian and we got an American band. But I was wondering where you got the Russian Fiddler and Russian Singer? Any recommendations?

We are having a spanish station at our CH too

We are also playing some salsa, merengue, bachata and reggaeton at our reception.

We are thinking of having his grandmother do a reading in Spanish at our ceremony.

I'm playing mostly spanish music a litte for my domincan side and a little for his puertorican side.

also my family (and ive seen this in other cultures too) does the DOLLAR DANCE.

where the bride is on one and end the groom is on the other. all the female attendants line up by the groom and the male attendants line up by the bride and everyone has to pay a 'dollar' (usually more though lol) to dance for a few seconds with the bride and groom.
yay cash!!!

Re: Wedding traditions??

Well, I am Cuban and Italian so we are going to play a lot of salsa and merengue. And, of course reggaeton. You can't leave that out! Plus my Mom likes Daddy Yankee. LOL. Then, we are going to have Italian music as well because Dad is Italian and so is FH's family.
