In good old days, during marriage ceremony, a ‘sikhiya’ (ਸਿੱਖਿਆ) was read (in the form of a poem) by brother or any other relative of the bride. I had the privilege of reading ਸਿੱਖਿਆ for my elder sister Jaswant Kaur. (I had prepared this ਸਿੱਖਿਆ by copying and editing some other ਸਿੱਖਿਆ; ਨਕਲ ਮਾਰ ਕੇ).
Added in comment section later: ਛੋਟੇ ਵਡਿਆਂ ਦੀ ਲਿਖੀ ਸਿਖਿਆ ਪੜ੍ਹਦੇ ਹੁੰਦੇ ਸੀ। ਸਿਖਿਆ ਪੜ੍ਹਦੇ ਸੀ ਦੇਂਦੇ ਨਹੀਂ ਸੀ।
