Mexican Marriage Traditions


By lunalatina1955 - Posted on 11 August 2006

This is an interesting article about the meaning and survival of some of our
Mexican wedding traditions. The only thing that I disagree with is the
"lasso" - I heard that the indigenous had used flowers to encircle the couple,
and this was substituted with the "lasso - rosario" with the Spanish influence.
Who knows - but it is interesting nevertheless!
