On Sunday, the wedding takes place—a reenactment in which participants, dressed in traditional costumes, parade through the town’s streets, recreating every phase of the ceremony in detail, at a leisurely pace, and with great historical accuracy.

The event, set against the backdrop of Candelario’s traditional architecture, creates an immersive experience that allows visitors to travel back in time and get an up-close look at the customs of yesteryear.
