The veil and cord ceremonies have the marrying couple 'tied-up' together while kneeling for almost half the time during the nuptial mass. Filipino brides and grooms do not arrive at the ceremony venue at the same time. The bride, on the other hand, usually stays in the bridal car and will only alight the vehicle just before her bridal march. In return they get a chance to dance with them. Newlyweds release a pair of white doves during the reception to signify a peaceful and harmonious marital relationship.
