How a Potlatch is the Same as a Wedding

By Samantha and Dillon

The potlach ceremony is the same as a wedding celebration in Winnipeg because they both;

  • celebrate marriage

  • have lots of guests

  • have rings

  • honor two people

  • have a feast

  • have dancing

  • tell family stories

  • have singing

  • wear special clothes
