Abstract

Balinese people inherit socio-religious values through the culture of dresta and sima (customs), which contain the content of traditions that have been inherited from generation to generation and are used to organize community life in organizing the order of community life. Marriage is a very important and sacred momentum for Balinese Hindus. In Balinese, traditional marriage is a sacred bond that is carried out between two individuals or people in the world. Balinese customary law is unwritten. However, the legal awareness of each member of the community causes the growth and development of customary law to be in line. marriage in Balinese life is also not only interpreted as a meeting of two human beings on the basis of mutual consent (love) alone but there are fundamental things that must be obeyed by the couple. Bali avoids forms of patemuan (matchmaking/marriage) that are contrary to the socio-religious values of its society. Marriages that are prohibited or avoided by Balinese people are mainly inbreeding (incest taboo) because this also medically/scientifically has a great effect/chance to produce abnormal offspring or physical defects caused by genetic similarities between parents (mother and father).
