7 Essential Mexican Wedding Traditions:1. Padrinos and MadrinasPadrinos and madrinas are wedding sponsors. Think of them as your wedding godparents. In fact, the tradition actually has roots in the custom of choosing godparents as mentors for baptisms, confirmations and marriages.
Along with providing advice and guidance, padrinos and madrinas make financial contributions in Mexican weddings. They may pay for the engagement party or items needed for the ceremony, such as:
- El lazo (lasso)
- Las arras matrimoniales (coins)
- The Bible used in the ceremony
It is an honor to be chosen to serve as a madrina or padrino. Typically, these individuals are married couples themselves who have watched the bride or groom grow up. You can have multiple madrinas and padrinos. It’s not uncommon for couples to have two to four sets.
2. El Lazo (Lasso)The wedding lasso, or el lazo, symbolizes unity; a joining of two lives. In traditional Mexican weddings, unity ceremony is performed after the couple exchanges vows. Then, the madrinas and padrinos place the wedding lasso over the couple’s shoulders in a figure-eight shape, which represents a new beginning in the Bible.
The lasso can be an oversized rosary, a silk cord or a flower garland.
It’s typically joined in the middle by a crucifix.
The ceremony is followed by a prayer asking to bless the union. At the end of the ceremony, the lasso is removed and kept as a memento of this special day.
3. Las Arras Matrimoniales (13 Coins)The lasso can be an oversized rosary, a silk cord or a flower garland. It’s typically joined in the middle by a crucifix.
The ceremony is followed by a prayer asking to bless the union. At the end of the ceremony, the lasso is removed and kept as a memento of this special day.
4. MariachiCouples may hire mariachis to sing religious songs and hymns during the ceremony and at the reception. The reception music is more upbeat and festive to celebrate the couple’s big day and get everyone out on the dance floor.
5. La Vibora de la Mar (Sea Snake Dance)The Sea Snake Dance, or La Vibora de la Mar, is a traditional dance performed by the bride and groom.
The couple stands on opposite chairs and joins hands to create an arch. Family and friends pass under the arch while holding hands and dancing.
The couple must not break the snake formation. As the music gets faster, it gets increasingly more difficult for the couple to keep it together. This tradition is so much fun and it really helps to bring everyone together.
6.
Tossing the GroomThe tossing of the groom, also known as el muertito, is when the males get together, lift the groom over their shoulders and toss him into the air several times. Occasionally, they’ll also pass around the groom’s shoes and leave money or gifts inside.
7. Dollar DanceThe dollar dance, also known as the money dance, is a tradition of unknown origins, but it’s practiced in cultures around the world.
At a Mexican wedding, guests will “pay” for a dance with either the bride or groom by pinning dollars to their clothing. This gives them some rare one-on-one time with the couple and an opportunity to wish them good fortune.
Other Frequently Asked Questions:
Why do Mexican weddings toss the groom?
Called the “el muertito,” Mexican weddings are unique in the fact that they have a special event where all of the male guests throw the groom into the air.
During this time, the groom’s shoes are removed and guests stuff gifts into his pockets.
Shoes are often passed around for guests to fill with money. While the event is a popular one, there’s very little information on the significance of el muertito.
What can I expect at a Mexican wedding reception?
Mexican wedding receptions are a major event, and if you’re lucky enough to attend, you’re in for a magical night. First, you’ll be in for a major feast with all of your favorite Mexican cuisine, including:
• Meat dishes, such as chiles rellenos and spicy stews
• Spicy rice and salsa
• Mole blanco, or a delicious sauce made from nuts and chili peppers that are blended together
• Dessert table, which is the center of the reception’s décor
• Cookies, candies and chocolates
• Elaborate wedding cakes
However, food isn’t the only thing that you have to look forward to during a reception.
You’ll also be dancing the night away. Of course, the Mexican wedding traditions outlined above will also be part of the equation.
You can expect mariachis to play during the reception, and the wedding, too. Hymns and religious songs are common during mass, but they also make their way into the wedding reception.
Most weddings will include an open bar with all of your favorite traditional Mexican beer and alcohol, such as tequila and margaritas. Kids will also be given a non-alcoholic drink, called aguas frescas, which is flavored water.
Of course, adults that prefer non-alcoholic drinks can also request flavored water.
Tequila shots are often passed around during the event, so if you do drink, be prepared to have your own supply of shots.
Aside from food and drink, you can also expect a lot of ornate dances, such as:
• La Vibora de La Mar, which is a bride and groom-centric dance that involves guests running through the arch that the bride and groom form with their hands..jpg)
As the music gets faster, the dancing speed increases and guests have to work diligently not to break the “snake chain.”
• Dollars are pinned to the attire of guests, where males will pay for dancing with the bride and females pay for a dance with the groom.
Depending on the couple and their preference, the festivities may end for the night and continue the next day. However, many couples also opt for the La Tornaboda, which is a unique event where only special guests are welcome to attend.
What does Arras mean?
In Spanish, the word “arras” means earnest money. During the wedding ceremony, the groom will hold 13 coins in his hands and offer them to the bride. The highly religious symbolism represents Jesus and his apostles.
When the bride accepts the arras, this means that she trusts the groom.
However, the coins can also be 12 gold coins that represent the months of the year and a platinum coin, which is meant for the less fortunate.
The bride and groom will choose a couple to provide the las arras. Typically, the godparents will provide the coins as a gift to the couple. Of course, the coins can also be represented in other ways, such as through jewels.
How long do Mexican weddings last?
Due to the many Mexican wedding reception traditions outlined above, the normal Mexican wedding reception can last up to 2 days. However, the actual wedding ceremony itself lasts around 1 hour.
Mexican wedding traditions are filled with meaning, religious connotations and are beautiful and elegant. While the wedding itself lasts for around one hour, it’s not uncommon for the reception to be an all-day affair – sometimes, a two-day affair.
16 Mexican Wedding Traditions to Know

Mexican weddings tend to be large family affairs, oftentimes even treated as family reunions. Everyone from all sides of the family is invited, along with handfuls of friends, which means guest lists often exceed 200 people.
Whether or not you’re related to the couple—if you’re celebrating, eating, and dancing together, then you’re family.
Mexicans are overwhelmingly Catholic, so most Mexican weddings are rooted in faith and take place in a Catholic church. If you’re invited to a Mexican wedding, it’s helpful to gain an understanding of the symbols and customs you’ll see in order to fully appreciate the intricacies of the ceremony and their significance to the couple’s life together.
“Mexican weddings are very festive,” says Father Ryan Zamora Carnecer, the pastor at Divine Providence Catholic Church in San Antonio, Texas. “Many times there are mariachis that play during the mass, and the church is beautifully decorated with flowers and colorful decorations. At the same time, it’s very faith-based, and there’s a focus on God and our Blessed Mother, Mary, to guide the couple through this journey.”

9 Catholic Wedding Traditions You Need to Know
01 of 16
Los Padrinos y Madrinas

Los padrinos y madrinas are chosen by the couple and play a significant part in the wedding. They’re like godparents, and often sponsor portions of the wedding, like purchasing the Bible or other elements of the ceremony, giving the readings during mass, and hosting the bridal party. There are no defined roles and responsibilities for los padrinos y madrinas, and no minimum or limit to how many can be included. It’s an honor and privilege to be asked, and those who are asked are often examples of faith, love, and devotion that the couple would like to emulate in their marriage.

Church Ceremony

Marriage is one of the seven sacraments in the Catholic faith, along with sacraments like baptism, confirmation, and reconciliation. The church is considered the house of God, and it is a place of worship, so Catholics consider it very important to perform this holy sacrament in the church. “The rite of marriage is not just between two individuals, but also God's presence,” says Father Ryan. “It’s their prayer, so that’s why it’s inside the church.” Depending on the couple, certain parts or the entirety of the ceremony might be in Spanish. “Even if a couple primarily speaks English, they may ask that the wedding be performed in Spanish for their parents and grandparents,” says Father Ryan. You’ll often see both parents walking their respective children down the aisle. Mexican culture honors both parents equally, and walking their child down the aisle symbolizes both parents’ consent to the marriage.

Mass

Mexican weddings take place within a mass, which is similar to the mass that takes place every Sunday, but with the addition of marriage rituals.
Those rituals include the exchange of consent (or vows), and the nuptial blessing, which we’ll get into later.

Kneeling Pillows

At different points throughout the mass, the couple (along with guests in the pews) will kneel to pray. Los padrinos y madrinas will often gift these kneeling pillows to them, typically white and embroidered with lace. The couple will keep the pillows as mementos of their special day.

Exchange of Consent

“The exchange of vows is essential to the marriage rite, where each one exchanges their consent and is followed by a reading from a Bible,” says Father Ryan. After the traditional mass, the pastor performs the Exchange Of Consent, otherwise known as vows. By promising before God and the rest of the church to love each other faithfully for the rest of their lives, the couple forms an unbreakable covenant.

Las Arras Matrimoniales (Marriage Coins)

The arras are 13 gold coins inside an ornate gold box, and they’re often a gift from los padrinos y madrinas. During the ceremony, the pastor will bless them, and the groom presents these 13 coins to his bride as a gift. This Mexican tradition signifies the groom's commitment to supporting the bride and serves as a representation of Jesus and his 12 apostles to show that their relationship to God is crucial to the success of their marriage. “The coins remind the couple that their treasure is now one, and they will share in all that they have together,” says Father Ryan. “At the same time, it reminds them to help those who have less than them.”

Liturgy of the Eucharist (Communion)

Communion takes place after the vows because receiving the eucharist as their “first meal” together signifies the newlyweds’ reliance on God to sustain and support them during their marriage.
“You're not supposed to receive the Holy Communion if you’re not Catholic, so guests can stay in their seats if they’d like, but if you would like to receive a blessing, put your hands over your chest in an X and the priest will bless you when you come up to the altar,” says Father Ryan.

El Lazo (Wedding Lasso)

El lazo is a unity ceremony performed after the exchange of vows using a lasso to join the couple. The lasso could be anything, but it’s typically an oversized rosary or a silk cord. El lazo is placed over the couple by los padrinos y madrinas and signifies their new status as one in the eyes of the Lord. “The lasso is a symbol of their mutual support for each other in carrying their duties and responsibilities as a couple,” says Father Ryan.

The Nuptial Blessing

At the end of the ceremony, the priest will perform the Nuptial Blessing, which is a prayer for the couple that unites them as “one flesh.
” The priest asks God to watch over them and prays that they may be faithful to each other and live a long, happy life together.

Presentation of the Bouquet

It’s common for Mexican couples to present the bridal bouquet to the Virgin Mary after the ceremony and ask for her blessing. “We are praying with Mary to ask for her intercessory prayer that their desires as a couple be heard,” says Father Ryan. A second bouquet is prepared ahead of time for the bride to carry in photos and at the reception.

La Callejoneada (Wedding Parade)

La Callejoneada is a parade that takes place after the wedding ceremony. Led by the upbeat music of mariachis, la callejoneada is very similar to a Second Line that might take place at a wedding in New Orleans. It’s a walking and dancing celebration that takes guests from the ceremony to the reception and gets them in the mood to party all night.

Wedding Reception

Mexican wedding receptions are some of the best parties you’ll ever attend. From the never-ending dancing to lively mariachi music, and the incredible food and desserts, it’s a celebration that goes well into the night, and sometimes even into the next day. Traditional Mexican wedding food includes things like tacos, tamales, pork carnitas, chiles rellenos (stuffed poblano peppers), enchiladas mole, and more. Variety is the key here: multiple types of meat, sauces, and salsas will all be options.
Most Mexican weddings will have an open bar, serving everything from traditional Mexican beers and tequila to margaritas. You’ll likely be handed a shot of tequila at some point, at which point you might hear a common Spanish toast: “¡Arriba (up), abajo (down), al centro (to the center), pa' dentro (to the inside)!” Some Mexican weddings will serve aguas frescas for the kids and non-drinkers, which is a sweet, flavored water beverage.
Traditional flavors include horchata (rice and cinnamon), tamarind, limon (lime), and sandía (watermelon).
Many Mexican people love sweets, and will likely have a whole table stacked with elaborate displays of cakes, candies, and cookies to choose from. Aside from the traditional wedding cake that the couple will cut together, treats might include traditional Mexican desserts like tres leches cake, flan, polvorones (known as Mexican wedding cookies), buñuelos (fried fritters), and pan dulce (sweet bread).

Special Dances

La Vibora de La Mar (the Sea Snake Dance) is a song and dance where the bride and groom stand on chairs opposite one another and form an arch, which guests pass through while holding hands and dancing. The goal is to not break the snake formation, and that gets harder as the music gets faster.
As for the money dance, guests “pay” for a dance with the just-married duo by pinning dollars on their attire.
It’s a way to secure some one-on-one time with the newlyweds—which is rare in large Mexican weddings—and to extend best wishes to the happy couple.

La Tornaboda (After Party)

La tornaboda is a smaller get-together held after the larger reception, or sometimes the next day, exclusive to family and close friends. If they get together the next day, they’ll also use this time together to open gifts. While everyone has a chance to celebrate at the big party, but family is at the heart of Mexican culture, so this is a time where those closest to the couple get to enjoy and celebrate the newlyweds in a more intimate and personal way.

If you want to organize your own wedding as brightly, cheerfully, noisily, with dances and songs, then in order to satisfy all desires, a Mexican-style wedding is suitable. This article will describe suitable outfits for the bride and groom, guests, event decoration and venue.
Traditions of Mexico
When choosing a certain style for a wedding, you should follow all the rules and nuances of the celebration. Mexico is rich in its traditions, including wedding traditions, so it is worth learning a little about them in order to avoid unpleasant situations and in order to bring newness to our traditions. Firstly, one of the interesting facts is that in Mexico, a wedding is originally a celebration of the parents of the young. Therefore, wedding invitations come to guests directly from their parents. We recommend that you borrow this process for your wedding. Invitations for guests should be made bright and original; Mexican symbols are used in decorating, for example, the image of cacti or a sombrero. Guests should immediately understand in what style the wedding will take place.
There is also a tradition in Mexico: young people are dressed in a white ribbon and showered with red beads, which symbolize success and good luck.
This ceremony is performed after the couple exchanged marital vows.
Wedding ceremony and venue
In this beautiful country of contrasts, during the wedding of the young, parents are responsible for almost everything: they think what should be the cake, rings, outfits and how much money will be allocated. But the bride and groom also have their pleasant chores. The future husband should take care of the musical accompaniment of the celebration, and the wife should take care of the venue. A Mexican wedding is a heartfelt, fun, family celebration that is usually held outdoors. The venue, the arch for painting, chairs, tables and the path along which the newlyweds will walk - everything should be decorated with flowers and rose petals. Flowers are chosen by the bride. And remember, the brighter the better! Invite a real orchestra as musical accompaniment, or there should simply be “live” music. And also the whole evening is traditionally accompanied by fervent dances. You can decorate a room or a banquet area not only with plants and flower arrangements, but you should hang multi-colored lanterns around the entire perimeter, install candles and light decor.
An interesting idea for the holiday would be the installation of a special apparatus, which at a certain moment triggers a mechanism, and it abundantly showers the territory with sweets. This will add a lot of new emotions, laughter and fun.
The image of the bride and groom, clothes for guests
Invited guests can wear clothes according to their own taste, without limiting themselves to either the color or style of the outfit. Bright, rich things in a floral print will be more appropriate at a Mexican-style wedding than ever. The bride and groom should choose more classic and solemn attire. The decoration of the event is the girl's white dress, but if desired, it can be replaced with a pink, peach, coral or red dress of an even cut, or with a corset and a fluffy skirt.
Mexican specialties
Mexico is famous for its diverse national cuisine. Naturally, those who decide to organize a Mexican-style wedding should borrow ideas for a wedding menu from this country.
For example, it is customary for them to initially treat each guest with corn tortillas with various fillings. All dishes should be richly sprinkled with various spices, and some even decorated with exotic flowers. There must be a traditional dish on the table - paella with shrimp and lobster, and then everything is a little more standard: baked poultry, vegetable, meat and fruit cuts, vegetable or rice garnish.
Newlyweds dance
Dances at a Mexican-style wedding should be given special attention. Take care of the entertainment program for guests. You can invite a dance group to perform or come up with a lot of exciting dance competitions with the participation of all invited guests. But a special dance is the dance of the newlyweds. It is generally accepted that it should be gentle, touching and romantic, but the Mexicans have their own opinion on this matter. In this country, it is believed that the bride is obliged to dance with absolutely everyone who wants to do it.
