The study is a sounding into the family festivities of one of the most important families in Early Modern Hungary, the Esterházys. The picture of the wedding ritual is supplemented with examples from other aristocratic families. Aristocratic weddings were one of the important instruments of family policy and a potential source of increased power. The Palatine Nicholas Esterházy was a great strategist in the field of marriage in the first half of the 17th century. It is difficult to imagine that he would have gained the office of Palatine without his two advantageous marriages. Nicholas Esterházy conceived a family policy, in the context of which he planned the marriages of his descendants. He also organized and supported marriages at his court. Thanks to these marriages, he created a whole web of relationships at his court and in the counties where his properties were situated. Apart from marital politics, the study also examines the actual practices connected with weddings in this period, from engagement and banns to the actual ceremony.

Ceremonial wedding tunes (svadobne noty) were sung during the traditional wedding ceremony in Slovakia, usually a cappella by women, at specific moments of the wedding sequence with context-appropriate texts. Through village women‘s recollections of the wedding repertoire and ceremonial wedding practices of the past, the functions are explored that wedding tunes (svadobne noty) may have played in the traditional village life before and during the socio-economic and cultural transformations that took place in Slovakia in the course of the twentieth century.
