A wedding, or wedding ritual or mating ritual, is an occasion where a male and female wolf mate, or get married, as it is referred to as in the first film.
The two wolves that are getting married stand in the center of a clearing, while their pack form a circle around them. If the couple are from two different packs, both their packs will attend the wedding.
The couple will start the mating process by accepting each other's scent, then nibble each other's ears. The final stage of the ritual is when they rub noses, and they're officially known as mates. There is probably more stages between the nibble on the ears and rubbing noses.
