Pan Yao married Pan Yaoqing, and men and women had very close social contacts. A man and a woman are willing to form a spouse after they get to know each other. They can tell their parents their wishes. If their parents agree, they will send a media to each other's house to talk about marriage. After the other parents agree, they can get engaged. Another kind of marriage situation is that parents have the final say, but they must obtain the consent of their children.

The matchmaker sends the age of his child to the bride. After the wizard's "eight characters", the bride's parents give the bride a bride price together with the matchmaker, which is called "setting". That is, the engagement is counted and the wedding date is set.

On the wedding day, the married party includes grandparents, parents, uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters, and they send the couple to their home. After meeting the wedding team on the way, the couple will be sent to the wedding home together; When entering the door, the wizard beheaded a rooster as a symbol of "abstinence", and the new talent was accompanied by "companion". Then the matchmaker will give the bride and groom a drink all day, which is called a "toast". The worship ceremony was particularly grand, and both husband and wife worshipped their ancestors 12 times; Sent to the bridal chamber by a companion. Then set the table in the main hall, let the married relatives sit in turn according to their age, and the married parents, uncles and uncles also sit with them. Accompanied by the accompanying media and the "banquet caterer" (the person in charge of the banquet), the newlyweds propose a toast to their married relatives one by one from the old to the young, and then worship the married relatives in turn, and then worship the ordinary relatives and friends. If there are many guests, drinking often lasts all night. After the guests are worshipped, they should "wrap up" the new couple as a gift.

Marriage in Pan Yao is relatively stable, generally from one end to the other, with few divorces. At the time of divorce, both sides can cut copper coins or break bamboo tubes, and swear to God, each side will share half. If you divorce and remarry, the "valuable" money can be accepted by the owner of the stone brand, which is unacceptable to both parties. Many Pan Yao men settled in the woman's home through adoption.
