DOWRY A dowry is money or property brought by a bride
to her husband at marriage. Cambodians, however, believe that the groom should present the bride with gifts. He travels to the bride’s home accompanied by his family with trays filled with fruits, cakes, gifts, and jewelry. Instead of money, the gifts are arranged and presented to the bride’s family on silver trays. The number of trays depends on the groom’s wealth and status. During this time, family and friends meet and the wedding rings are exchanged. Three songs are included in the dowry celebration.

HOW MANY DAYS DOES THE WEDDING LAST?

1. The Buddha 2. The Sangha (the brotherhood of monks) 3. The Dhamma (Buddha’s teachings)

PRE-CEREMONIAL ACTIVITIES
Breakfast: Following the celebration of the dowry, Cambodians have a special breakfast in which the bride and groom feed each other. When they are done, the other guests may eat. During the breakfast, the master of ceremony entertains guests by playing folk songs. Cambodians who are of Chinese descent use this time to offer tea to the spirits of their ancestors.
Hair cutting ceremony: In this ceremony, the bride and groom get their hair symbolically cut. (In the past, the couple’s hair really got cut.) The mock haircut represents a new relationship as husband and wife. The master of ceremony cuts the hair first, followed by the bride and groom’s parents, relatives, and friends.

SONGS OF CEREMONY
Throughout the ceremony, four songs are sung: Phat Cheay : a song that invites the bride and her bridesmaids
to the ceremony. Kang Saeuy : this song is played when gifts are offered to the
ancestors. Bangvel Po Pil (Seven Rotations): While the candles are passed
around seven times, family members wave the smoke which is believed to protect the couple from evil.
Bay Khon Chang Dai (Tying the Wrists): The following song is sung while the bride and groom’s wrists are being tied: "We tie, we tie three strings to each wrist of our children. We wish for true happiness and success to this couple, who will always be together like wet grass seeds. We tie your left wrist to make you remember your parents. We tie your right wrist to make you carry on the family lineage and traditions."
