Couple receives Php629,000 during their first dance as newlyweds

• Netizens expressed their amazement and enviousness towards the situation.
• A commenter said that it’s really the couple’s family tradition to pin so much money on the newlyweds’ clothes.

It’s traditional for some Pinoys to perform a prosperity dance during weddings so that people will stick gifts and cash on the couple’s clothes to help them start married life.

Guests can decide how much they want to give.

But recently, a couple went viral on Facebook as people said “sana all” after seeing photos of a husband and wife’s clothes nearly covered with Php1,000 and Php500 bills.

According to a photographer from Tagum City, Davao del Norte named Ernie Piamonte Balili, the couple received an astonishing amount of Php629,000 during their dance.

Netizens were amazed and a bit envious of the huge amount of money. The bills were even pinned to the couple’s clothes like fans so it looked like part of their attire.

Others were saying that they must be rich while some wrote that the couple must be the luckiest newlyweds in the country.

But someone named Jan Marianed Casten Faeldonia answered that this type of money-giving during a wedding is a tradition of the family.
