English to Filipino Translation
A candle is always present in a Filipino wedding. It symbolizes the Light of Christ.
Note: Courtship for some Filipinos is variety. The “Harana”, visiting a girl in her house and paying respect to her family, which is very traditional still happens for some but not necessarily for many. Weddings are always preferred big and can be expensive, but some also prefer small wedding for practicality. It is typical for most Filipinos to be expressive of their feelings when their loved ones die. There is a lot of crying (usually loud for some) for the duration of viewing (typically 9-14 days before the burial).

In a Filipino wedding, parts of the ceremony are the placing of veil and cord by the Sponsors.
Veil – It is a symbol of purity. It symbolizes the presence of the Lord. It is placed over the shoulders of the couple to symbolize their union and being “clothed as one” in unity.
Cord – It is a symbol of the couple’s bond; that they are no longer two but one in their new life as a couple.
