Do you know: The bride in Puerto Rico carries a bouquet made of poppy flowers and a fan, which are meant to bring good luck.
A doll made in the likeness of the bride is during weddings. This doll is placed on the main reception table with special pins known as capias. The capias are to be removed from the doll, by guests and used for pinning money on the bride’s dress when they dance with her.
