LMFAO!!!! so true... i keep having to remind family member that i'm not having full on mexican wedding since i'm marrying a half white/vietnamese guy. he's only gone to one mexican wedding with me and he was a little cultural shock and it WASN"T a full on mexican wedding. the securtity outside was really checking out invites, it was at the fairgrounds though. and most did have a bottle of tequila on the table.
I'm not Mexican, but my SIL is. Her and my brother's wedding was the CRAZIEST wedding I have ever been to. It wasn't quite like this sounded, but it was a 700 guest wedding and there was a ton of tequila and dancing going on. It was one of the funnest wedding I had ever been too, but I can't imagine my own wedding being like that. I was exhausted at the end of the night and I was just a bridesmaid. It took my SIL and brother three days to recover.
I did laugh reading the comments and I agree now we(Mexicanos) have security que fregados es eso we just pick up any invitation photocopy it at home or walgreen y vamosnos a la fiesta. For my wedding, it will have elegant decor because forget the tradition plastic manteles , faux spoons, white paper plates and that heidous pasteles that my mother is trying to convince me to buy from CArdenas with the 2 white doves on top. No thank you. For the beer you are right que se acabe la food who cares but the Coronas they have no end and their are still 2 ice chests left over the very next morning.
The viejas inside or outside chatting while the men are in a corner drinking, camachos running around like crazy (this is what I love) licking the damn cake before it is cut. Grandmas drinking canela(cinnamon tea).
The bridesmaids with dresses and vibrant colors that don't even go with the wedding colors. In church the dresses are purple you come to the reception and its red and black. You stand and look and say okay and sit.
Its true when you get engaged and people find out your getting married , forget the invitations we spread the word to friends of the friends of the friends. RSVP que fregados is that. We don't call or RSVP we just show up without gifts (well some of us do not me). Que dollar tree by the end of the night the cash might all be gone that is why we have the dollar dance and even than the cash is taking from the bridal party so we have la nana or the mom taking care of the cash.
Our venue is our backyard forget paying 10,000 for a hotel. The bathroom line waiting time is 20 minutes for 1 bathroom home todas la cagonas decide to go at the same time.
Our food is birria, barbacoa, or carnitas, man this is the best food. Tortillas, aguas frescas that is what I plan to serve at my wedding. I don't want no damn steak, que potatoe shallot y que forest garden give me what I love and will enjoy. You can always go for seconds, thirds, fourths there is no limit.
but you better arrive on time (0h yeah) I forgot you write wedding starts at 4pm expect us to be there 5:30. Arrive on time to get a sit if you arrive 4 hours late dont expect to sit down as all the mesas are taken. People hog the centerpieces take them to the cars before the bridal party arrives. If you sit down at the mesa and their is another family there they push the centerpiece towards them its like saying "its mine don't even think about it."
A mi me encanta ser Mexicana
there's no etiquette in mexicans wedding jajaja , we're the weddings craziest peoples ever lol!
Omg !!!! Hahaha I am not Mexican but my husband is from Df Mexico and he has tell me about this weddings before I am Honduran and at are wedding everything was more American and my husband is still mad about me not letting him do all the Mexican traditions but hell not I will this at my wedding !!! I still have to deal with some kids that day but I just let family bring there kids everyone else was not allowed !! But I have attended Mexican wedding before and they are just hilarious you will have the time of ur life!!!
Hahaha!!! This is great!! And so much of it is true. Some of our center pieces belong to our coordinator so I have already warned her that someone needs to guard the door to make sure no one takes those center pieces!
Ahhh! Memories of every quiceanera and boda growing up. I think this is the reason Mexican brides hesitate to "rent centerpieces". You know it's going home with someone. :-)
