China's Wedding-Bedding Ceremony

Choose an auspicious day. A few days before the wedding, the "lucky guy" (the elder or relative of the groom-to-be, who chooses parents who are alive, married harmoniously and have children) will move the new bed to a suitable place. Then, before the wedding, a "lucky woman" (the elder or relative of the bride-to-be, who chooses parents who are alive, married harmoniously and have children) is responsible for making the bed, laying mattresses, sheets, pillows, dragons and phoenixes on the bed, and taking out all kinds of happy fruits, such as red dates, longan, dried litchi, red mung beans and Li Lili.

On the wedding night, after the couple enter the new house, they can let their children eat happy fruits in bed, which is called "pressing the bed" and means "a hundred children and a thousand grandchildren". If you want to add a lively atmosphere, the groom's brother of the same age can make trouble in the new house to exorcise evil spirits for the couple, and everything will be smooth and auspicious after marriage.

Taboo:

After the bed is installed, no one is allowed to enter the new house and touch the new bed before the new couple enters on the wedding night.

During the first month of the wedding, pregnant women and undertaker are not allowed to enter the new house.

Women who have a monthly affair are not allowed to enter the new house (except the bride) after going to bed and on their wedding night.

China's Wedding Ceremony-Head Ceremony

On the eve of the wedding, both men and women choose the auspicious time (usually according to the auspicious time provided by the fortune teller, the man is half an hour earlier than the woman, that is, one hour), prepare the headgear * and perform the headgear ceremony. This ceremony must be held by a "lucky guy" and a "lucky woman" (the elders or relatives of both men and women, who choose their parents who are alive, married and have children respectively).

Newlyweds should wear brand-new silk pajamas to "miss each other". The woman should choose a window with a view of the moon, light dragon and phoenix candles and a wick of incense on the table, add three bowls of lotus seeds, red dates and soup pills (six or nine capsules in each bowl), and prepare fruits, barbecue and chicken for sincere worship.

Both men and women should prepare children's ruler, double-sided round mirror and red handle scissors, which are the so-called "bibcock mirror and scissors", so that "boy" and "good woman" can comb their hair and say:

"Comb to the tail.

Comb it twice until your hair turns white and your eyebrows straighten.

Three combs for children and grandchildren. "

After the ceremony, it symbolizes that a couple has entered the "adult" stage and wishes them a long life together.
