We talk about the different aspects in the different kind of weddings.

Clothes

American: Traditionally, the bride wears a while wedding dress and white wedding veil. 

Chilean: The bride wears a white gown, while the groom can wear a huaso suit, or belongs to an institution with its own suit. The groom's traditional costume is a black suit with white shirt

Announcement

American:Family and friends are formally invited. 

Chilean: Invitations seek originality and elegance

Ceremony

American:The ceremony may include wedding vows written by the bride and the groom, in which they speak each other.
