Asian Dating:: Filipina Marriage
The Filipino culture's high regard for the sanctity of Marriage has given the Philippine Wedding Ceremony many customs and traditions that will be new to the American Gentlemen.
In the traditional Filipina Wedding the groom is expected to burden all of the cost as opposed to American traditions were it is the Bride's family that is responsible for wedding expenses. As customary with Filipinas she will be wearing her wedding ring on the right hand and not the left as here in the United States. For the Filipina, the Bible has stated "the Son sits at the right hand of the Father". So she will sit on the left and wear her ring on the right. This tradition completely blindsided me as I had already presented my fiancé' with a beautiful engagement set and placed it on her left ring finger. You will also find some Filipino superstitions associated with Wedding
Ceremonies and Newlywed couples. The Bride will not wear her Wedding Dress before the ceremony or it will bring bad luck. Also if a bride wants her husband to agree to her every whim she will step on his foot on the way to the altar. This according to superstition will place him under her spell of"Lihi". One of the most distinctive qualities of a Filipina Wedding are the cathedrals. They are HUGE. Some capable of holding as many as 600 or 700 people. Often they are gigantic architectural wonders built of concrete and stone with huge arches and towering steeples some times 100s of years old. Wedding Receptions are also very affordable in the Philippines.
