In an entertaining and informative style, Edna R. Bautista explains the significance of such customs as the thirteen coins(las arras) and the cord(el lazo) used in the marriage ceremony, the selection of godparent-sponsors(padrinos) for support during the nuptial festivities, and the Latina-Catholic tradition of carrying three bridal bouquets.All the practical aspects of making the day perfect are here, too, including: Preparing a wedding-planning calendar, setting up a reasonable budget and gift registry, planning a menu of traditional foods, adorning the wedding party in traditional cultural dress and accessories, and choosing music for the reception that will appeal to both young and old guests. With all the steps involved in planning a customary Latino-Christian wedding or an interfaith one -- from ethnic dances to the toast -- Viva el Amor is indispensable. This bilingual book is all the Latina bride-to-be will need to plan the wedding of her dreams. Author Biography Edna R.
