This made me cry. It’s so rare to see such fierce tradition now a day.

Watching this in person is truly a beautiful and humbling experience. The rich embodiment of their story telling is breathtaking

Captions spot on. Support and love for the couple .

So blessed that on such a "blessed day"--your tradition/custom is being used to celebrate this beautiful couple. So important to treasure your family's traditions.

I got to witness my cousins and their family doing the haka for their sister and her new husband. Every time I get to see them do it I'm so moved.

I love seeing Hakas. I'm an American and love that these people are so proud of their culture.

I fell in love with the Haka as soon . As I learned of its existence and the Maori culture in New Zealand. I love rugby and my favorite team is, The All Blacks. Something about seeing and hearing. The Haka being performed stirs my soul. I can feel my ancestors inside of me. So, from all the way from Puerto Rico. I send you Māori people. All my respect, love and many blessings to the newlyweds. 🫶🏼
