WEDDING CEREMONY RITUALS: SPANISH ‘LAS ARRAS’ COIN EXCHANGE

Ceremonies by Nikki Kulin, Costa Celebrant - Wedding ceremony rituals: bespoke rituals created for you.

The ancient Spanish wedding tradition of Las Arras can help you inject a taste of Spain into your ceremony.

Exchange coins as part of the traditional Spanish wedding ritual of Las Arras

Said by some to date back to biblical times and others to the times when a dowry was given, the exchange of 13 coins is today used as a commitment Ritual.

Couples can choose to bring coins from where they come from, where they live, where they have travelled or just Euros from here in Spain. Entirely your choice.

I write special words of commitment and there are often moments of humour when one or other of the couple would quite like to hang on to the coins!
