In Brazil, the date has a very different story, because it is related to the Portuguese friar Fernando de Bulhões (San Antonio). In his religious preaching, the friar always stressed the importance of love and marriage. Due to their posts, after being canonized, won the fame of "matchmaker".
Therefore, our country has chosen the date of June 12 for being the eve of the day of St. Anthony (June 13). As in many countries of the world, here too it is tradition to exchange gifts and cards among dating couples.
