Chapters twelve to fifteen deal with weddings themselves. The wedding party, the religious ceremony, the wedding reception and the rituals observed there, the post-nuptial offering and the tornaboda, an old custom involving the parading of the trousseau and the entry into the home of the married couple are the main points looked at. The study finished with chapters on bachelorhood/spinsterhood, the marriage of old people and widows/widowers and common law marriages.
