The results of the research show that the Henna Dance functions to protect the bride and groom from disturbances originating from humans and other creatures and as a blessing for the bride and groom who will live a new life. Apart from that, the Henna Dance or Berinai Night is called a night to introduce the groom to the entire extended family of the bride. However, currently the Inai Dance or Malam Berinai is rarely performed by the people of Nipah Panjang District, especially the Malay ethnic community in Nipah Panjang District. This is because the Henai Dance or Berinai Night event can only be performed by people whose economic class is relatively good. So currently it is very rare for researchers to see the Inai Dance or Malam Berinai culture in Nipah Panjang District.]]>
