Wedding custom in Chaoshan area: the choice of return date

When getting married in every place, although most procedures are similar, there will be different wedding customs according to different places. Now, let's go with Bian Xiao to see what customs Chaoshan people have when they get married, and what are the differences with people in other places.

1. Resign

Before the wedding, the man will give the bride price to the woman. We are employed here. Tobacco, alcohol and sugar, three dollars, and the gift money is about 8000-30000. The rich give more, but the poor give less. This is just a formality. I remember when my brother got married, we gave 8800, and then the other party took 2000, and the rest came back.

Return a gift

After receiving the bride price from the man, the American family of the woman will reciprocate accordingly. This gift is similar. Basically, part of the gift money given by the man is drawn, and then the bride-to-be takes the rest. Besides, she will buy home appliances and furniture. The two sides discuss together and decide which to buy.

Choose a day.

That is to say, the arrangement is almost the same, and the relationship between the two is good, so the wedding date can be fixed. There are some fortune tellers in every place. Parents of both sides will take the horoscopes of two newcomers and give them to a famous fortune teller in the local area, asking him to choose an auspicious day.

In fact, the decoration step should not be counted, because it is in no particular order. I won. I can't say much about it.

5. Bed

The night before the wedding, the woman will find a lucky man, that is, a man with a happy family, living parents and preferably two children, put a new bed in the new house and sprinkle some well-meaning foods such as red dates, peanuts, longan and lotus seeds on the bed.

6. Dowry

Before marriage, the bride will put the dowry prepared at home in a red wooden box and give it to her husband and his family the next day.

7. Management

The night before the wedding, I will choose an auspicious time to worship God, heaven and earth and pray, and at the same time inform the man to worship God.

8. comb your hair

The bride will ask a blessed elder to comb her hair and then get married.

9. Eat jiaozi.

Eating glutinous rice balls before leaving means that you can get married and be happy.

10. Get married

After receiving it, the bride will sit in the room and may not come out. Then the room will be filled with a table of dishes, and then an experienced host will entertain them. Every time the host says a blessing, he will eat the same food, say something, eat what food, and then offer tea and make a gift, even if he is married.

1. Go back to your family.

Every place should be the same. The next day, the two of them will go back to their mother with presents. When she comes back, the bride will give each groom and brother and sister a ring. When we get here, we will be a family. Because the traditional Central Plains culture preserved in Chaoshan area is more traditional, relatively speaking, some customs will be more, but it is also a blessing and an auspicious wish.
