On the morning of the wedding, the groom and his groomsmen go to the bride's home. The bride's family and friends sing traditional songs and try to stop the groom from entering. Eventually, they let him inside and there is singing between the two families before everyone goes to the wedding ceremony. So the next step would be the morning wedding preparation. So on the morning of the wedding ceremony the groom and his groomsmen head to the bride's home with both the groom prepared in the suit and the bride prepared in her wedding dress. During this the bride's family and friends won't let the groom get inside their house easily as they go outside and sing traditional songs that say they will not let anyone in the house. His side of the family and groomsmen have to convince and push their way in in a friendly manner to let them inside the house to be with his bride. Once inside there's a back and forth of traditional songs between the two sides of the family then everyone heads to the wedding ceremony.
