Filipino wedding ritual accessories — veil, cord, coins, candles

The Wedding Suite

Ritual Accessories

Veil, cord, coins, candles — the small things the ceremony needs that often get forgotten until the week of. Sourced together, shipped together, so nothing’s missing the morning of.

  • The full set, in one shipment. Veil, cord, coins, candles, pillows — what every Catholic Filipino wedding ceremony calls for.
  • Coordinated to your color palette. Cream, ivory, blush, soft gold — match the rest of the wedding’s tone.
  • Heirloom-quality. The pieces a sponsor or godparent keeps after the ceremony.

Common questions

What’s included in a traditional Filipino Catholic wedding ceremony set?

Typically: the veil (worn by the bride and pinned to the groom during the ceremony), the cord (yugal — placed around the couple in a figure-eight), the arras (13 ceremonial coins exchanged between the couple), wedding candles, and the kneeling pillows. Each carries a specific symbolic moment in the ceremony.

Who’s traditionally in charge of bringing each ceremony piece?

The principal sponsors (ninong / ninang) traditionally provide the veil, cord, candles, and arras. The couple usually orders the set themselves and gives them to the sponsors before the ceremony. We ship in a single box to make the handoff easier.

How far in advance should I order accessories?

Same timeline as the rest of the wedding party — 6 weeks comfortable, 8+ weeks safe. Send a Wedding Inquiry if you want help putting the full set together with matching colors.
