A traditional Hmong wedding occurs at the bride's family home. At the wedding ceremony, when the food is cooked and ready to be served, tables and chairs are set up. The male relatives of both the groom and bride are asked to sit at the table where traditions will proceed. To be seated at the wedding table means that one is respected and honored (women were not part of the wedding table). 

Similar to different types of kwv txhiaj and lug txaj based on the dialects and region, the traditional White Hmong's wedding song opens with 'hais zoo li kuv os...'

mej koob = wedding negotiators that plays a significant role in the overall success of the wedding. The mej koob are always male skilled in singing traditional wedding songs. The mej koob's main responsiblity is to successfully negotiate the bride price that both families agreed upon.
