A Nenets wedding is a complex ritual that takes place in both the bride’s and the groom’s home camp. The wedding begins after the bride price and dowry are ready, when the groom comes, together with the spokesman and his family, to the tent of the bride. There, several ritual games, such as the capturing of the groom and his family by the bride’s family and the passing of a red cloth to the tent by the groom, take place. After a reindeer has been slaughtered and a meal served, the participants get ready to leave for the groom’s tent. Similarly, ritual games are played when the bride leaves, together with the dowry, to the groom’s tent: attempts are made to capture her from her sledge. Later, on the way, there might be people ritually stealing the bride. In the groom’s tent, a festive meal is also served. (See Chomič 1966: 167–171.)
