On the morning of the wedding, the groom along with some friends decorates the tree with different objects, fruits and rolls. The tree is carried by young unwed persons to the godfather’s house where it is tied outside the gate. Then the people go on to the bride’s house were they leave the second tree. The tree is a symbol of youth and strength; decorating it represents the rich life of the future family.
