    PAMAMANHIKAN
    Respect is highly emphasized in the Filipino culture and Pamamanhikan is the groom
    and bride's way of honoring their parents. During the Pamamanhikan, the family of the groom
    visits the house of the bride. In the past, the pamamanhikan is the formal occasion when the
    man formally asks the woman's hand in marriage in front of her parents, grandparents and the
    rest of her family. This was the time when women are expected to be shy. They can't even be
    left alone with another man unless they're related by blood. It's essentially a get-together
    hosted by the bride's family and attended by the groom's family. The groom's family arrives
    with gifts and treats. As part of another ritual known as the paninilbihan, the groom will
    occasionally execute activities for the bride's family. In the early years, the pamamanhikan
    was a formal ceremony when a man publicly asked a woman for her permission to marry in
    front of her parents, grandparents, and other family members.
