Marriage Ceremony in Aceh - Tueng Dara Baro

Hello steemian friend, tonight i will share a little story about a marriage license in aceh.
Intat linto baro and tueng dara baro true same, showing the responsibility of families in establishing marital bond. This is a bridal interdisciplinary procession by the family.

Linto and Dara mean the groom and the bride. Baro is new in Bahasa Indonesia. Intu means to deliver, while the word tueng is usually a phrase after joining another word, but when it stands alone as a word, its meaning is more or less is a reply or reply.

Intat linto is a family procession of the male party to bring the groom to the house of the bride. Beginning with the arrival of the bridegroom with the family, followed by the welcome of the female family, usually a traditional dance and chanting shalawat (prayers for Rasulullah Muhammad SAW) at the gate of the residence, then the bride juxtaposed in the aisle. Afterwards, the bride and groom's family enjoy a banquet in front of the aisle, while invited guests are entertained separately, usually outside the home or courtyard.

Tueng dara baro essentially the same, this visit the family of bride's family with bride to the groom's residence. If you can find the equivalent in my traditional custom, Java, tueng dara baro like ngunduh mantu. The host of a baroque tueng daro is a groom's family. The outline is the same as the linto intat procession, just different places, if events are held at home.

What is interesting in this inter-bridal delivery chain, although essentially the same as most Indonesian cultures where family engagement is always featured, Acehnese brides are not yet legitimately shared before the three habits are performed. Despite the veiled and holding a wedding reception, usually the couple is still separated. Not allowed to be together, only the old and the frequency is still limited.

If the bridegroom house and the bride far apart, different cities for example, not infrequently after the reception, the bridegroom come home with a family group. Nearby dwellings though, usually, the lovebirds have not been runt-luntung or anywhere together. Most days, half a day, or overnight only the groom visits the woman's house, to return to her own family's residence. Even after linto intat. The new couple will live together after the linto intat show and more often after the baroque tueng dara baro.

The primacy of the family in the tradition of Aceh marriage has actually been shown starting custom application. In Aceh-style applications, the prospective groom is usually not involved. Application of Aceh in the form of visits or hospitality of the bride-grown parents to the residence of the female family to woo. If the proposal is accepted, then the ties of two families will be followed by the custom application where two new big families meet. In this application, usually, two new families discuss all marriage purposes, one of which determines the day of marriage. Another important point, which is discussed during the application in the Aceh tradition, is the agreement of the amount of the dowry or dowry.
