Compilation of videos courtesy of daddy wel tv. We chose these videos filmed in Barangay Bulihan, Rosario, Batangas for this post. Visit daddy wel's Youtube channel for more handaan/celebration videos and whatnot. The series covers things we see in a traditional Batangas wedding or baysanan from lipatan, panunulungan, sumanan, wedding reception, pasabit, and sabugan. Slaughtering of animals, also part of the preparation, is not included in the videos as it will violate YouTube guidelines.
​
​Also worth noting in a Batangas wedding is pulungan, the Batangueño term for pamamanhikan. Other terms/practices preceeding the wedding proper are paghahanda, martesan, paglalawo, pagdadahon, pagniniyog, and pahapunan.

Another tradition right after the wedding is the dapit.
