    Magaly,

    I like the wedding bell as a symbol because love and marriage were very prominent in Act 1 Scene 3. Great description about the Wedding Bell and how it relates to the act.

    Magaly, I really like the symbol you chose the bells were a great idea. I think it does symbolize marriage in a great way. The bells do remind me of marriage
