My fiancé and I give thanks to the Holy Sacrament because we got married and we are so enamored of each other. On the day of the wedding, we were so happy, that when we came out the church we started running and laughing, because the musicians we had hired followed us but they couldn’t play a tune and were making a lot of gestures.

[...] thank the Virgin for these marvelous moments. When we arrived on horseback to our house and his little brother and sister with his dogs came to give us a welcome, I felt like I was a part of him.

The day Roberto and I were going to get married he suddenly felt scared and decided to run away. I thank the Virgin of Zapopan that I noticed it in time and caught him. I drag him back to the church where we got happily married. With so many people he just couldn’t run away again.

I almost made the biggest mistake of my life when I was going to marry Maria Luisa. But there was Manuel standing outside the church. When I looked in his eyes I couldn’t resist and we ran away leaving my fiancée and her parents. They had a nervous breakdown. I thank the Virgin of San Juan because I didn’t ruin three lives. Now I’m happy with my fiancé and Maria Luisa already has a new suitor.

My parents forced me to get married with a man I didn’t love only because he was a rich landowner. But it happened that exactly on the day of the wedding Jose Garcia, the man who I always loved, came back to town. He abducted me at the church door. I give thanks to the Blessed Sacrament because now we are going to be happy together.

Rodrigo had promised me that he would come back to marry me, and I waited for him and even prepared my wedding dress. But he didn’t return. Nevertheless I kept waiting. People laughed at me for waiting so long, but I waited and waited until one day Rodrigo came back. Although we weren’t the same as before we still loved each other. I thank the Virgin because finally I’m happy after wanting so long.

After five years of engagement with Antonio I wanted to get married but he still didn’t make up his mind. All my friends were already married and had children. And I felt like an old maid. I give thanks to Saint Antony because when Jose Pacheco started to visit my home and began to send me flowers, Antonio reacted immediately and asked me to marry him. Our wedding was beautiful and now I’m very happy.

I dedicate this retablo to the Miraculous Virgin because she had blessed me with an amazing similarity to the very famous Italian-American singer Frank Sinatra. Thanks to that I’m always in demand for celebrations, weddings and christening parties in the whole state of Zacatecas.

The day when we married, we were so happy that when we came out of the church, we took our hands and we just ran away leaving all the people behind. There were just the two of us loving each other so much. We thank to the Virgin of Zapopan for our great love and happiness that even birds came to the church singing for us.

There were a lot of children at the door of the church on the day of the wedding of Felipe Montejo and Flor Ramos. This is a good sign which means the couple would have many babies. Felipe and Flor give thanks to Saint Anthony for his blessing.

The day of my wedding was the happiest day of my life. Thanks to Saint Anthony I married a good man, hard-working, handsome and romantic. When we came out of the church we got on his horse and went to his ranch. The children waved to us and ran along us. I give thanks for so much happiness.

When I became a widow, I decided to get retired. I devoted myself to embroider and to care about my dogs. But one day the devil appeared and whispered in my ear some sinful ideas. Then I started to look with lust at the pharmacist Manuel and even on our priest. When I realized my distress, I prayed to the Virgin of Zapopan. Thanks to her inspiration I accepted the doctor Vazquez’ marriage proposal. Now I think only about him. And I thank the Holy Virgin for saving me from the devil.

My fiancé and I give thanks to the Holy Sacrament because we got married and we are so enamored of each other. On the day of the wedding, we were so happy, that when we came out the church we started running and laughing, because the musicians we had hired followed us but they couldn’t play a tune and were making a lot of gestures.
