The Quinceanera In the Hispanic culture, the Quinceanera is about as important as it gets. When a young woman turns the age of fifteen, a party is thrown in her honor to celebrate her becoming a responsible adult. From the time the girl is born, parents save and plan for this special occasion. A Quinceanera is much like the American “sweet sixteen”, but when compared to American culture, the Quinceanera is most like a wedding. From the cake, to the dress, to learning how to dance, both weddings and Quinceaneras take a long time to prepare.

Amish weddings are traditionally held on Tuesdays and Thursdays in late fall, after the final autumn harvest. A couple's engagement is usually kept secret until just a few weeks before the wedding when their intentions are "published" in church. The weddings usually take place at the home of the bride's parents with a lengthy ceremony, followed by a huge feast for the invited guests. The bride typically makes a new dress for the wedding, which will then serve as her "good" dress for formal occasions after the wedding. Blue is the typical wedding dress color.

But the only thing the kids and parents are waiting for is for The Three Kings’ arrival.
Belkov Do not fail In my family we have a ritual to go from childhood to adult at the confirmation. When a child get confirmed there is a big celebration party after the church. During this party there will be three tasks that the child has to complete to become an adul: Light a cigar, drink a glass of cognac, and last tie their own tie. This ritual has been going on for many years, and I went through it too thirteen years ago. The day started with all my family and I went to the church where I would get confirmed, a two hour long ceremony.
Religion was important in early government as it would be integrated into governments up until the seventeen hundreds. Governments would mandate laws and social reforms based on their religion. The three main religions that emerged were Christianity, Islam, and Judaism. Each of the three uses the same basic structure to run their religion, but each twist it in their own certain ways to make it their own. Early on if you had anything to do with religion you where considered higher up in the society, this belief would last until the Roman Empire and into some of the Middle Ages.
Marriage had transformed from the mid-20th century to the 21st century in monumental ways. The roles of husband and wife had evolved with the division of labor among other things. The idea of wedlock developed into cohabitation prior to marriage, partnership between two of the same sex, and many other variations.

It would be the most amazing feeling marring into his family, who has been my support system through out of these years. I have to admit that I watch all of the wedding shows on TLC including Say Yes to the Dress, Four Weddings and Say Yes to the Dress Bridesmaids.
