Question

Read and choose the option with the correct answer.

I am Paola, and I live in Orlando, Florida. I am getting married this summer in Orlando and today I am sharing with my Puerto Rican mom some of our traditions here in the USA. Before the wedding, the bride and groom do not see each other because it is considered bad luck. The night before the wedding, we have what is called a rehearsal dinner where the families of the bride and groom meet and enjoy each other’s company and eat a meal. On the day of the wedding the tables are decorated with favors (which are small gifts). During the reception, the guests dance to American music. The food that is eaten depends on each family: seafood, grilled or roasted meat, potatoes and vegetables, and wedding cake that is decorated beautifully.


If Paula wanted to add a traditional element from a Puerto Rican wedding, what could she do?

Have a relative bring thirteen coins to the altar.
Include tamales on the menu.
The guests could pin money to her dress.
Play some merengue music at the reception.

B) Include tamales on the menu.

Step-by-step explanation:

I got it right on the test; Pasteles are a traditional type of Puerto Rican tamales served as a food dish during weddings receptions.
