A traditional wedding in Carriacou & Petite Martinique consists of dancing of the flags and cakes in a tradition known as the “Meeting up of the Cake”. This cultural performance handed down from the ancestors takes place before a wedding. It is a tradition which spread from Windward in Carriacou to the sister isle of Petite Martinique and to the Grenadine islands. The bride’s family and that of the groom will decide on a neutral place where both sides will meet, accompanied by a string band, a flag, and a cake dancer to clash; usually, it is at a crossroads where a libation of rum and water will be made to the ancestors. The dancing of the flags is carried out before the display of the cakes. The flag dancers are mainly men, and the cake dancers are women. The flags and cakes of the groom must always be danced before that of the bride. Everyone dances to traditional, folk wedding songs.

It's something to do with the French and when the Africans came later they adopted this tradition. Maybe it's fedon thing . But this is nothing to do with Africa. To to see Carriacou pride themselves of knowing all African culture. Yet they never do saracca. How much they have kept? Carriacou just adapt things and called it Africans culture. Most of the Blacks in Carriacou have a Caucasian grandparent. This is what they told me. As much as they are dark their aunts and grandparents are very very light as white. Carriacouians are the bastards children of Africa they are highly mixed.
