It's safe to assume you'll probably be serving some yummy Mexican food staples at the reception (chips and guac, anyone?), so ensure that your menus themselves coincide with the cuisine. Opt for bright colors, flowers, and pretty fonts to notify guests what they'll be eating.

You don't have to turn to a full-on seven-piece mariachi band to kick off the celebrations, but live music is definitely a must. Even if you only enlist the help of a few local guitarists, your wedding will already feel much more on par with Cinco de Mayo-themed celebrations.

As hard as it is to resist a taco, few guests will want to chow down on this messy meal while dressed in their wedding best. Make their taco consumption as clean as can be with mini versions held together with skewers. Plus, given the size, your nearest and dearest won't feel as guilty for eating more than one.

In certain Mexican locations, like Oaxaca and San Allende de Miguel, it's tradition to rally your wedding guests for a parade through the city streets. Nothing can take your nuptials from a mere everyday wedding to a full-blown fiesta quite like this, which guests of all ages will love participating in.
