The Wedding rosary is actually two individual and complete rosaries which meet and become one before the crucifix. Each rosary has 5 decades, each has its own center and pendant beads of 3 Aves and 2 Paters, then meet at the 3rd center to drop down into another series of 3 Aves's and 2 Paters before reaching the crucifix. As part of the ceremony to symbolize unity, a large loop of rosary beads or a lasso (lazo or lazzo) is placed in a figure eight shape around the necks of the couple after they have exchanged their vows.

The traditional wedding cord, also known as the wedding lasso or wedding lazo cord is a piece of wedding paraphernalia used in some Christian Catholic wedding ceremonies. This is actually a representation of a loop of rosary beads made out of white satin or silk. During the wedding proper, this is traditionally formed into a figure-of-eight shape, and then placed around the neck areas of the bride and the groom after they have made their wedding vows, and are already kneeling on pillows for the pronouncement of a wedding prayer. This cord symbolizes lifetime unity or the everlasting union of the bride and groom when they officially become husband and wife, as well as a symbol of marital protection; while the loops formed signifies their love for one another. After the wedding, this marital twine is typically kept by the bride as a wedding souvenir.
