The results of the research show that: (1) There are five steps in the Mecah Tigan ceremony, namely preparing equipment, respect by the bride to the groom (Sembah Kalbu), stepping on the egg (Mecah Tigan), washing the groom's feet (Wijiki), and last helps to stand (Lantingan); and (2) each equipment and process in the Mecah Tigan/Wiji Dadi ceremony has its own meaning according to its purpose. The equipment used is a gold tray (Bokor Kencana), clear water, three kinds of flowers, and chicken eggs. This equipment has the meaning of bringing good fortune and as a symbol of new life. Each process is reflected as the start of a new life after marriage, and a form of devotion from the wife to her husband.

In this procession it is not only a bond between the bride and groom, but also a harmonization between the bride and groom with the universe and spiritual forces.
