Maybe in Lasso you want to "Lazo"

Lazo es una cinta, alguna especie de nudo (ribbon, bow)

In the ceremony, the priest joins the couple with a ribbon which represents the union of the groom and the bride.

PS. Please correct my English

I believe that's lazos. It's a kind of ribbon or cord with a cross on it (sort of like a rosary) that's placed around the bride and groom to "bind" them -- figuratively, of course.

I suspect that by "Aras" you mean "Aros" - rings. No idea for "Lasso".

Firstly the Spanish word is "consagración" which translates to consecration in English.
