Take this cawv along with the mov and nqaj for each couple you are representing to the cuab tsaav to cawv and mov nqaj.
Pour one cup for the cuaj tsaav and ask him to ntawg cawv and mov nqaj for each couple, remember to pour him one cup for each couple.

If you don't want them to has zaaj then you say

If you want them to "has zaaj" then, when you go up you say tsi yog kuv le. Yog koj yig yig, then they know you want a zaaj. Then they will say zaaj
When this is done you will say "tsuav yog mej txiv qeej txiv nruag mej tas yog saam saib los yog kuv, seem saib los yog kuv, kev neeb kev tsaav tu sab los nyob mej??? nawb" , then except the qeej and the cawv
