Portuguese Wedding Rituals

Portuguese Wedding Rituals http://www.imagesbygustav.com/ Portuguese wedding ceremonies usually consist of a Roman Catholic mass, where traditionally the priest would bind the couple\'s hands with his stole, or call for the Bride and Groom to exchange rings, and then cover the couple with his stole, to unite and protect them. As the newlyweds exit the church, friends and relatives customarily throw bonbons and flowers, in lieu of tossing rice. In Portugal, many weddings used to be small and restricted to direct family, while others would be larger affairs where friends and relatives would all lend a hand in planning and organizing all the details of the wedding festivities. In Canada, Portuguese communities have been influence by other cultures and old customs are beginning to change. http://www.imagesbygustav.com https://www.instagram.com/gustavwoloszyn https://vk.com/id691367183 https://www.viewbug.com/member/gustav... https://www.facebook.com/photographygw 908-447-2978 Always Diffe
