    The ARRAS, a small chest of gold coins symbolizing wealth and strength, is blessed; groom may present 13 gold coins to the bride as a symbol of his commitment to support her.

    Parents bless their children in the home before the ceremony.

    PADRINOS (godparents) have a special role in the ceremony.

    The bride and groom have a special kneeling pillow.
