Pamalaye

This is a Bisaya word about couples who decided to marry and the family of the guy visits the family of the girl to see if they have anything against the marriage.  Because it is not only a union of two people but a union of 2 families.

Wedding date, who will pay what, gifts, where they will live, blah blah blah are all laid down on the table over dinner for everyone to agree to disagree.

Last Sunday, my brother and parents went to visit the family of the girl. But it will just be a dinner as a nod to that tradition.  After all, the wedding is already set. 😅

Greetings,

Karlota
