What is a Despedida de Soltera?
The Despedida de Soltera is a Filipino marriage custom similar to a bachelorette party, but with a strong emphasis on the family unit.
Ritually it represents a showing of consent from the bride's family and a celebration of their blessing over the marriage.
Additionally, it is literally a "goodbye to spinsterhood." As the bride prepares for her upcoming wedding, the family celebrates her through a large gathering. The groom’s family, close relatives, the wedding party, and friends of the bride and groom are all invited to take part.
Not only does the Despedida de Soltera serve as a family’s honoring of the bride-to-be, but it also often serves as an opportunity for the bride and groom's families to meet for the first time. It is considered quite necessary for this meeting to happen before the wedding, so even if the parents have met, the party is a good opportunity for all of the family members from both clans to get to know one another in a celebratory setting.

THE ATI VILLAGE
BORACAY ISLAND was originally inhabited by the “ATIS” or the “ABORIGINES”. ATIS are physically short in size, dark brown skinned and curly hair resembling the natives of the AFRICAS as well. They were the first inhabitant of the Island that is being considered and voted as the WORLD’S FAMOUS ISLAND DESTINATION today.
ATI’s are highlands dwelling people of the Province of Aklan feeding on the availability of food sources that is naturally bountiful in the island before. They feed on fish, wild animals, coconuts, and other fruit bearing trees within.
The vast development of Boracay has driven the authority to specify areas in the island that will only be specific to the natives as their dwelling place, A community where they can call their own lands. The effort has been successful in the leadership of Malay Municipal Government and the NCIP (National Commission for Indigenous People) and other private companies and NGO’s (Non Government Organization) as project partners.
