Attending other culture wedding ceremony gives you a whole new experience. I manage to attend a traditional Rungus wedding ceremony in their longhouse. (BTW, Rungus is a one of the majority group in Kudat, Sabah). Their costumes are very different from the Kadazans. The ceremony (that is usually will take one whole day) was held in Bavanggazo Longhouse, one of the main travelers longhouse attractions in Kudat. There are a lot of food, 'mongigol & sumundai' (traditional Rungus dancing, traditional games, and of course home made brewed alcoholic drinks (siopon and montoku).
