He visto esto en las invitaciones, pero la verdad no lo se.   evie1789 on "Vivan los novios toast" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/vivan-los-novios-toast#post-3211389 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 07:44:18 +0000 evie1789 3211389@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ Quick question. In Spain at wedding receptions, someone will cry: "Vivan los novios!" and everyone shouts in reponse: "Viva!" and the whole room toasts. This happens many times, many times throughout the wedding night (and everyone gets very drunk!) Sometimes there's also a chant that starts and spreads around the room: "Que se besan! Que se besan!" I'm wondering if these are only Spanish traditions, or if similar traditions exist in parts of Latin America?

I googled 'Mexican wedding dress' and came across this dress: <img src="http://bios.weddingbee.com/pics/181731/mexican-wedding-dress-491x442.jpg" /> I really like it, but is it even traditional? If so, where can I find something like this in the Bay Area?   Thank you! fresitachulita on "For Bees thinking of doing Spanish invitations" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/hey-latina-bees-one-more-wording-question-for-inviations#post-3118688 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 23:59:45 +0000 fresitachulita 3118688@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ I found this link to different verse samples, which really helped <a href="http://www.marsinvites.com/invitaciones/textoinvitaciones/textoinvitaciones.htm">http://www.marsinvites.com/invitaciones/…</a> It's from a stationer in Aguas Calientes, so this is the usual format which I've also seen in San Luis Potosi. maggierose on "Latino last names and changing name after the wedding question" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/latino-last-names-and-changing-name-after-the-wedding-question#post-2594991 Sat, 03 Sep 2011 21:12:27 +0000 maggierose 2594991@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ My FH is latino and has two last names, as many do. I am not that crazy about his first (paternal and 'main') last name because it is long and hard to pronounce. Would it be possible, when I change my name after marriage, to take his second last name? So for example, lets say his name is Jose Rivera Garcia. Can I become "Maggie Garcia" instead of "Maggie Rivera"? Can I pick which last name I want or do they make you take the first one or both or none?   fresitachulita on "Hey Latina Bees, one more wording question for inviations!!" http://boards.weddingbee.com/topic/hey-latina-bees-one-more-wording-question-for-inviations-1#post-3118689 Fri, 20 Jan 2012 23:59:48 +0000 fresitachulita 3118689@http://boards.weddingbee.com/ How does this wording look to you guys. I did have it reviewed by a native speaker...but then I added the day of the week and changed the lines a little bit. Does it look okay?

I had proofs done in mexico wich had our names shown as "Sarah & Robert" for example, the invitation lady in mexico was the one who put the ampersand in there.... In the end I decided to get them done here in the U.S. using the mexico proof as a template....but i'm noticing other spanish invites I see would just use "y"... ."Sarah Y Robert". Is it interchangable? which is the best way? RVG1010 on "reception card wording in Spanish.....
