It may not have escaped your notice that our wedding date falls on Cinco de Mayo.For those of you who have not had occasion to celebrate this up-and-coming holiday (at least as far as American celebrations go), Cinco de Mayo ("The Fifth of May" in Spanish) is a national holiday in Mexico, which has been growing in popularity in the United States in recent years. It commemorates the victory of Mexican forces led by General Ignacio Zaragoza over the French occupational forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.
Now we may not be of Mexican ancestry, nor are our Spanish-language skills too impressive, but we do like a good holiday. So don't be surprised if you see a little Latino flavor in our wedding festivities.
After all, who doesn't like an excuse to throw back a little tequila?
