| Summary: | In the Kelantanese Malay weddings, it is a tradition for the bridegrooms and brides to exchange gifts.
These gifts, known as hantarans include clothings, jewelaries and food. This article explores the
hidden meanings and tradition of food hantarans in the Kelantanese Malay wedding ceremonies,with
emphasis on behavior and symbolic aspects associated with food. The discussion here is based on a
research in Kelantan that has been completed recently. The Kelantanese Malays have always
included food as part of the hantarans, which are presented to either side in uneven numbers. These
hantarans are placed neatly and decorated beautifully, befiting the socioeconomic status of the
families of the brides, on pahars, containers with four legs, made from copper or bronze. These food
hantarans have their own meaning and significance which are discussed in greater detail in this article |
