The Mongolian wedding has distinct ethnic characteristics, showing the Mongolian people's rough, bold, brave, wise, hardworking and kind national character in a special form. The Mongolians are distributed in a wide area, and different wedding ceremonies have been formed due to their different residences. The traditional wedding is held in a yurt, and the traditional ethnic costumes can be fully displayed in the wedding. The wedding ceremony is similar in different places, and the display of horse riding is one of the major features. The wedding process is often accompanied by various forms of singing and dancing performances, and the scene is very lively. West Wuzhumuqin Banner is located in the northeast of Xilin Gol League, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. It is a pure pastoral banner with Mongolians as the main body. Wuzhumuqin wedding has a long history and is famous for its unique northern ethnic style, strong nomadic life atmosphere, warm singing and dancing forms and grand scenes. The whole wedding process has many etiquettes, including engagement, wedding reception, wedding, return home and more than 30 links, showing the hardworking, brave and wise Wuzhumuqin people's eager pursuit of a better life. Due to various specific reasons, the Ujumchin wedding ceremony has been diluted and is in danger of being lost. Measures are urgently needed to rescue and protect it.
