1. La Serenata

Perhaps not for everyone, this theatrical event takes place the night before the wedding when the groom arranges a serenade under the window of his bride. While others may know, it is kept a secret from the bride and she is awakened by the sound of musicians and her groom singing downstairs. Usually involving fun, music, a buffet, and a festive atmosphere, it is a uniquely Italian and somewhat Romeo and Juliet-esque tradition.
