Spanish Unity-Coins Ceremony Tradition

The unity-coins custom originated in Spain. The 13 coins (the number 13 represents Jesus Christ and his 12 apostles) are given to the bride by the bridegroom, signifying he will support her. Often presented in ornate boxes or gift trays, this represents the bride's dowry and holds good wishes for prosperity. These coins become a part of their family heirloom.
