IN MY COUNTRY MEXICO


If young couples in my country want to get married, they usually first get the permission of their parents, even though they are really sure of what they want, it is a custom to tell them.

The way this permission is asked is by making a reunion with the girlfriend's and boyfriend's families where they meet each other, then the future lucky one, "the boyfriend" asks permission for getting married to the girlfriend's parents, at the moment his petition is well received, he gives to his girlfriend an engagement ring as a showing of love and compromise.

After that, they have a dinner where the families start to socialize and plan the coming wedding.

Nowadays, it is usual that the bride and groom pay the reception, but then the honeymoon is a wedding gift from the broom or sometimes someone gives it as a present.

Finally, after the couple celebrated the wedding, they have to begin the kind of life style as a married couple, the husband offers to his wife a place to live and build up their marriage with full of hopes.
