Money Dance
The money dance is a popular Filipino wedding tradition, often referred to as the "dahil sa iyo" (because of you) dance or "pamanhikan" (formal meeting of the families) dance, where guests pin money to the bride and groom as a way to bless them with good fortune and help them start their married life. It is a lively, fun, and symbolic tradition in many Filipino weddings, and it typically takes place during the reception.
For fun, we requests our guests to join us on the dance floor to celebrate this tradition, no amount is too small!
Your love and well-wishes are the most important gifts of all. However, if you would like to contribute in another way, a monetary gift would be cherished as we build our life together.
While there will be a card box available at the wedding reception (as the bride and groom absolutely love receiving cards!), if you prefer to send a gift via electronic transfer, please feel free to use the following email addresses:
