There are some typical dishes of weddings. These are the rolls of dough and sugar glas
called Wanda, which attract good luck to the bride and groom, and the almonds covered
in caramel, a symbol of the bitterness and sweetness in marriages.
La novia
On the day of your wedding, the bride is expected to wear a garter. After the ceremony,
the bride takes off the garter and breaks into pieces offering it to the guests as a
souvenir. In some Italian regions, it is the boyfriend who takes it from the bride. In the
event that the bride does not wear a garter, it will be her shoe that will be thrown.
El novio
It is a tradition that the groom is the one who takes care of the bridal bouquet, and is
considered as a last gift of their courtship period, before getting married. She will be
able to choose the type of bouquet, the flowers, colors ... but the groom will pay for it.
In some provinces of the north, the bridegroom will wait outside the church for the
arrival of the bride, and it will be then when he will give him the bouquet.
The groom's tie is used to cut it and offer it to the guests in exchange for an economic
gift that is deposited in a container.
