Newbie looking for Dominican Wedding Traditions

[dania]

Hi I’m new to this forum and I’m very happy to hear from all these wonderful brides! My fiancé and I are planning on getting married in Punta Cana, DR next spring around the middle of March at the Paradisus Palma Real. My FI is white and I am Dominican raised in New York. He told me he would love to incorporate Dominican wedding traditions into our wedding. The problem is that I don’t know any beside, our music, food, and the Aras ritual. Does anybody have any more suggestions? Help!

Dania,

 

Why not ask your parents or relatives in the Dominican?

There's already a thread about this

Thank you so much for directing me to the Dominican Tradition thread.

As for asking my parents, well, they had a small wedding plus they are both Dominicans and at the time they lived and married there so it wasn't a big deal to incorporate Dominican traditions into their wedding. Same goes to my older family. In the other hand, I am marring a man from a different race/culture so it is very important for us to incorporate his tradition and mine.

 

Thank you so much again for all the help!
