People usually pin anything from $1 to $20 but I'd say the amount is usually $5. I've seen some people put more than $20. The total amount collected varies widely, as you can imagine. I'd say that at least $200 is usually collected though and often much more than that. <BR/><BR/>At most weddings money is pinned on the bride and the groom for the privilege of a dance with them. <BR/><BR/>The wedding ceremony itself is usually a traditional church wedding ceremony and the money pinning happens early on at the reception usually right after the traditional first dance of the bride and groom and the dancing with the parents.<BR/><BR/>Jen - Yes, we are!Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04321713951006827527noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604246.post-1125250881900970732005-08-28T12:41:00.000-05:002005-08-28T12:41:00.000-05:00Cajuns are fun. :)Cajuns are fun. :)Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12111036439004167503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8604246.post-1125247778277974412005-08-28T11:49:00.000-05:002005-08-28T11:49:00.000-05:00Hi, I'm Nelly, Indonesian.

I found a little information in your blog. <BR/>Actually I really want to know more about it, i mean, the unique wedding ceremony itself.<BR/>I wonder the amount of money that ppl pinned onto the bride. Can you give me the example?<BR/>In Taiwan, we should give very much money for the bride, at least US$30. How about there in your country...<BR/>I'm looking forward for your reply.
