Early in the morning, friends and relatives gathered at the groom's house. Tobacco leaves, fresh fish and pork are placed on the table in the main room, and relatives and friends are preparing sacrifices and blessings before the wedding.

On the first day of the Buyi wedding, the groom's family sent a team of five singers to the woman's house to "welcome the bride" with tobacco leaves, glutinous rice cakes, wine and other gifts.

According to the local Buyi custom, when you meet bridges, water and ancient trees on the way to the wedding, you need to stop to worship God and pay homage with wine.

When "Grant" arrived at the bride's house, the bride's relatives and friends in full dress had already set up roadblocks.

"Grands" have to drink four glasses of wine to enter the bride's room and sing with the "Grands" of the woman's family.

After stopping drinking and entering the main house, Dagelang handed over the tobacco leaves to the relatives of the woman, and the "drinking order" link began.

According to the local Buyi wedding custom, in the process of singing, the bride's relatives entertained Ge Lang with wine and distributed glutinous rice cakes and tobacco leaves they brought from the groom's house to the guests at the scene to share the joy.

Singing and dueting day and night, one after another, let the wedding take place in a cheerful and harmonious atmosphere, so that male and female relatives and friends can better understand the situation of both sides ~

The next morning, relatives dressed the bride Zhao in a wedding dress and covered her head with black cloth.

When the auspicious time came, the bride was carried out by her brother-in-law and officially "married".

At the end of the groom's house, the female elder who saw the bride off put on a new suit for Zhao. A new suit opens a new life.

Relatives and friends of the groom's family have been waiting for the bride to come in! The wedding procession is spectacular!

The most special thing about the whole Buyi wedding is that when you come to the groom's house and the bride and groom have eaten together in the new house, the bride must go back to her family.

According to the local Buyi custom, the bride will return to her parents' home the day after her marriage, and her mother will teach her to be filial to her in-laws, take care of the housework and handle the relationship with her sister-in-law. It usually takes three years for the bride to officially move into the groom's house.
