After the church wedding, then after the reception, the next program in the wedding event is the ‘Pantomina.’
Pantomina is a kind of folk dancing which mimics the love dance of doves.
In the local interpretation this time, it is first performed first by the parents of the bride, then followed by the principal sponsors, and at the end the new couples.

Proceeds from the joint effort of fund raising becomes the seed money for the new couple.
