🙂

We consecrated your marriage to Mother Earth in a special ceremony conducted by an Andean priest and associates from the Huaynas de Pumapata of Pongobamba Chinchero.

The Andean wedding is a living cultural manifestation of Pongobamba Chinchero. The Cusco Andean wedding begins with a ritual use of incense and flower essences to spiritually cleanse the couple, symbolizing the beginning of a new life.

Then, we begin with the offering to Mother Nature as a sign of gratitude for her daily blessings, including the joy of reuniting the beloved couple.

In the Andean wedding of Pongobamba Chinchero, several elements make up the offering, such as seeds, sweets, flowers, colored wool, and other representative aspects of the Andean world. Also, as offerings, we use the Chicha drink (Chicha is the elaboration and fermentation of corn from the Sacred Valley, the elixir drink of the Incas).

An Andean priest performs prayers and petitions to the tutelary spirits of the Andes in honor of the couple celebrating their union. Couples actively participate in the ceremony; if close relatives are present, they pray for the couple’s welfare and their offspring. If relatives and godparents are absent, the community will be your relatives and godparents at the Andean wedding.
