Destination Weddings in Cub

Weddings in Cuba are very popular as they represent a chance to celebrate love and happiness. Homes once owned by the wealthy have been converted into Palacios de los Matrimonios where many weddings are held. The bride will wear a white wedding dress, her forehead beaded with pearls. The groom will wear either a white tuxedo or a black suit.

Your wedding reception is a chance to feast on Cuban delicacies and dance to salsa rhythms. Often, Cuban wedding receptions include a money dance during which men attach money to the bride's gown, in exchange for the privilege of dancing with her.
