As you embark on your wedding journey, one tradition that has stood the test of time is the exchange of arras, or wedding coins. These beautifully crafted coins hold a deep significance, symbolizing the unity and prosperity that you and your partner will share as you begin your new life together.
At TINGKU, we are proud to offer a stunning collection of arras, including 18K gold-plated and traditional 13-coin sets, perfect for Mexican and Spanish weddings. These coins are not just a symbol of your commitment, but a tangible representation of the love and trust that will guide you through your marriage.
The Significance of Arras
The tradition of exchanging arras dates back centuries, with roots in both Spanish and Mexican cultures. The 13 coins, often presented in a decorative box or pouch, represent the groom's commitment to providing for his bride and their future family. The coins are typically blessed by a priest or religious leader, imbuing them with a sacred significance.
As the groom places the arras in the bride's hands, he is making a promise to support and care for her, both financially and emotionally. The bride, in turn, accepts the coins, signifying her trust and willingness to join her life with his.
Incorporating Arras into Your Ceremony
Incorporating the exchange of arras into your wedding ceremony can be a beautiful and meaningful way to honor your cultural heritage and traditions. Whether you choose a classic 13-coin set or a modern, gold-plated design, the arras will serve as a tangible symbol of the unity and prosperity you and your partner will build together.
During the ceremony, the officiant may bless the coins and present them to the groom, who then places them in the bride's hands. This moment can be accompanied by a reading or prayer, highlighting the significance of the tradition and the commitment you are making to one another.
Cherishing the Tradition
As you and your partner embark on your new life together, the arras you exchange will serve as a constant reminder of the love, trust, and unity that binds you. Whether you display the coins in your home or pass them down to future generations, they will forever hold a special place in your hearts and your family's history.
