The marriage ceremony, called mangilin, is similar to the mangidin
of the Nabaloi.
A hog is always offered for sacrifice, and the mambunong prays,
calling the names of the sky deities and asking them to witness the
marriage. They are also requested to cause those marrying to treat
each other properly, to cause them to have many children, to cause
everything which they plant to grow well, to cause them to have luck
with their livestock, and to give them long life and riches.
After the prayer the Mambunong passes a cup of water to the bridegroom,
who drinks, and then gives the cup to the bride.
A taboo is effective against both the bride and groom for three days
after the ceremony. At the end of this time they go to the brook to
bathe, the man taking his ax and the woman her camote basket. While
bathing each one repeats a short formula, after which they are husband
and wife.
