African-American/Mexican Wedding Ideas?

Does anyone know of a way in which both cultures and traditions may be incorporated into the ceremony/reception?

Thanks:)

Re: African-American/Mexican Wedding Ideas?

  • I don't know about these cultures specifically, but my cousin incorporated her Irish heritage and her husband's African American heritage into their wedding by having both an Irish marriage blessing and the lyrics to an African American spiritual read during the ceremony.

    You could do readings, songs, reception food even. There are a lot of ways to bring culture into your wedding :)

    Good luck!
  • Have you ever watched that movie Our Family Wedding???? Totally the same senerio- allthough it was a comedy.

    Maybe have a mexican band play for part of the reception? That would be fun.
    You could use some African American Fabrics in your decor for the reception.


    Good Luck!
