Is a Friendship pipe used at a Wedding ceremony?

A question from today.
Native pipe wedding ceremony.
Or
Is a native pipe used at a wedding ceremony?
My answer to this question is a follow up from,
Is a Friendship pipe used at a Wedding ceremony?
Yes!
A Friendship pipe can, but does not need to be used however,
if the setting is for friendship, love, respect and or for family
like a wedding, funeral, birth and so on,
one should think about inviting your creator to all gatherings
including powwows and paw-paus.
Passing around a friendship pipe is just that, making and keeping friends.
Remember, one should never be forced to smoke.
A little love tap on the pipe with your left hand will draw respect
and
love from your creator and everyone involved
because of your knowledge of our traditions.
