What is La Callejoneada?

Typically a prelude to almost every ceremony is a callejoneada, a parade in which the wedding party wanders through cobblestoned streets, tequila in hand, smiles alit, and voices singing. Giant mojigangas—papier-mâché puppets towering 10 feet in the air and dancing wildly—will visually announce the callejoneada, then you’ll start to hear the mariachi tunes. An adorable burro, adorned with colorful paper flowers, pulls a tequila cart from which all attendees indulge.


RECOMMENDATION ON WHAT TO WEAR THIS EVENT:
Traditionally, it is recommended that guests wear white and comfortable shoes as there will be plenty of walking on the traditional cobblestoned streets.
