2. Marriage customs
In the past, in Guanzhong, marriage relied entirely on the orders of parents and the words of coal.
Baby kisses are particularly popular. When the baby reaches the age of 12 or 13, the parents ask a matchmaker to get the baby betrothed (locally, a boy is called a daughter-in-law, and a girl is called a bride-seeker). Once the baby is married, neither party can regret it casually.
With the development of society, there are fewer and fewer baby relatives. When the doll grows up.
Free love, but you still need an intermediary to introduce you. After the engagement, both parties agree on an auspicious day to get married.
The man renovates and decorates the new house, and the woman prepares the dowry. In the past, marriage ceremonies were complicated.
When getting married, the man went to the bride’s house with 7 people (6 men and 1 woman), pulling a box and a basket containing 5 kilograms of pork, a rooster, a bottle of wine, and a red card. A red card is given and the woman entertains her with a banquet. When the bride gets on the float, her elder brother usually carries her to the float. Her shoes do not touch the ground and her feet do not touch the soil. After she gets on the road, she scatters road signs (cut the red paper into pieces and sprinkles them as she walks to guide the way). The bride's family has some gifts for female guests. , the number of people generally depends on the number of relatives.
Most of them are between 40 and 50 people. When the float arrives at the groom's house, firecrackers are set off, and a bowl of vinegar is poured around the float to ward off evil spirits.
At this time, the groom went out to greet the car. After the bride gets off the car, the deacon scatters wheat straw on the bride's hijab and chants: one scatters straw, two scatters straw, three scatters the daughter-in-law gets off the sedan; one scatters gold, two scatters silver, three scatters the daughter-in-law enters the door. .
The bride gets off the float, steps on the reed mat, and is escorted to the bridal chamber by the groom’s sister-in-law. Then the man makes breakfast and invites relatives and friends to eat soybean noodles.
At noon, after several cannons were fired, the new daughter-in-law, accompanied by her sister-in-law, walked to the front of the hall to perform the worship ceremony. Generally, one worships heaven and earth, the second worships parents, the third worships husband and wife, and the fourth worships relatives and friends.
After the worship service, lunch will be served, mainly food and wine. After the meal, the bride and groom entered the bridal chamber, and a middle-aged woman who was eloquent made the bed. While making the bed, she said: Make the bed, make the bed, and the house will be full of children and grandchildren. The husband will have a noble son, and the second will have a daughter. Wealth and honor will always be good luck.
For marriage, the ceremony is greatly simplified. The man brings a red envelope (containing varying amounts of money) and picks up the bride in his car.
After a lively quarrel, the bride and her guests came to the groom’s house, and then a civilized wedding was held: firecrackers were set off, the witness read out the marriage certificate, bowed to the parents and guests, and the parents and guests spoke. , the newlyweds introduce their love story, send the newlyweds into the bridal chamber, etc. Everyone likes to deliberately ask some tricky and funny questions for the newlyweds to answer when introducing their love story, making the atmosphere more joyful and lively.
Three days after the wedding, the bride has to return to her parents’ home, which is called returning home. Accompanied by the groom, he carries a basket of 20 gift buns.
During lunch, the woman who was the sister-in-law deliberately made things difficult for the groom. The first bowl of noodles was very salty and was placed in front of the groom. He picked it up and ate it honestly. No matter how salty it was, he had to bite the bullet and eat it. , and the smart one will find a topic and pass the bowl to his father-in-law. As soon as the father-in-law tasted the salty food, he asked his daughter Rui to leave, and the sister-in-law's plan failed.
After dinner, the women in the village began to ask for sons-in-law. The sisters-in-law each took a straw ring and put it on the groom's head. The groom had to smile affectionately and hide wisely.
Honest people often have four or five traps on their heads. This custom has the purpose of testing whether the groom is smart or not.
Marriage customs in Guanzhong, Shaanxi. Many people may not know the difference between Shaanxi and Guanzhong. The territory of Shaanxi has an irregular shape, long from north to south and short from east to west. Shaanxi can be divided into three parts, namely northern Shaanxi and Guanzhong. , southern Shaanxi. The general boundaries are as follows: The area north of National Highway 309 and the areas along it is called Northern Shaanxi; the cities it belongs to include Yan'an, Yulin, Shenmu, Tongchuan, etc. The south of National Highway 309 and the north of Qinling Mountains become Guanzhong; the cities it belongs to include Xi'an and Xianyang , Baoji, Weinan, etc. The south of Qinling Mountains is called southern Shaanxi; the cities it belongs to include Hanzhong, Shangluo, Ankang, etc. Just like the north and south of our country, the Yangtze River is generally used as the dividing line. In fact, even in Guanzhong, marriage customs are different, but they are generally the same. What is introduced here is the wedding customs in rural Xianyang.
A whole day of wedding can be divided into three parts: marrying the bride, entertaining guests and friends, and having a wedding ceremony. According to local customs, relatives and friends of the bride’s family have to come to the groom’s house for a banquet. Therefore, after the wedding ceremony, they will go to pick up the in-laws soon. Generally, the groom must go there. The car has also been replaced by a bus, usually The bride's dowry items that are more expensive or difficult to get will be taken to the groom's house in advance (such as washing machines, etc.). By the time of the wedding day, they will all be empty cardboard boxes. In Guanzhong, the wedding furniture is basically bought by the groom's family, while electrical appliances They are all bought by the bride’s family. You must be curious, what is the use of holding empty cardboard boxes? This has to mention another custom. One of the eight monsters in Guanzhong wears a handkerchief on its head. For a long time, the old ancestors have left the custom of playing with handkerchiefs. That is, when the car that picks up the mother's family comes, there will be a dowry ( (Including empty cardboard boxes), everyone will grab it, and then before the lunch banquet, the mother-in-law's family will redeem it with a handkerchief. In the meantime, there are many people who can talk, and they can feast their ears while celebrating. This is hard to say You can only go to the scene to feel the atmosphere. Before the meal, the bride will change her clothes and go to the toilet (actually just to go for a walk). When she comes back, she will usually pass through a door. At this time, the groom's brother (not his biological brother is okay), Other friends can also take a handful of chopsticks and scatter them on the ground for the bride to pick up. This is called diligence. After picking up the chopsticks, you have to turn over the plate and put 3 bowls on a big plate, one with steamed buns in it (meaning: Never in your life) (lack of food), one is filled with meat (meaning: you can eat good food in your life), and the other is money (meaning: you will never be short of money in your life). Some mischievous people put some oil on the bottom of the bowl, and they must turn it over with their hands. It won't lift up, it's too slippery, of course, it doesn't matter, girls all have clips, just pick it up with the clips and it will flip up, and then it's time to eat, toast, and see off guests.
Basically, it can start as soon as the sun goes down. In fact, it doesn’t matter. Everyone comes to see the new house, talk and laugh, it becomes lively when there are many young people, and there are endless tricks. I won’t go into details. If you have classmates and friends in Shaanxi, you can also go and see the excitement, which is quite interesting.
When the She people send betrothal gifts, there is a ceremony called "Kao Chilang". Akiro refers to the chef that the man's family brings to the woman to cook on the day when the bride price is given.

Selling chicken to find a partner.
There are many ways for young men and women of the Dai people to fall in love. There is a popular activity among the Dai people called "Chuan Shao". That is, unmarried young men look for unmarried girls to fall in love with on festivals, weddings and other occasions.
This kind of activity is usually held during the Water Splashing Festival, dragon boat racing, pendulum racing and other seasons. Young men and women sing and dance, starting in the evening and ending late at night. There is also a more peculiar form of "selling chicken". When festivals come, the Dai girls in Xishuangbanna kill their own fat chickens and stew them.
If the young man who comes to buy chicken is dissatisfied with the girl, the girl will ask for more money. If a girl falls in love with a young man, she will shyly lower her head and avoid the young man's gaze.
If the young man is interested, the two of them will carry the chicken, move the stools, walk into the quiet woods, and pour out their love for each other. The Dai young men in Dehong, Yunnan, also have a peculiar way of courting a mate. No matter in spring, summer, autumn or winter, if the young man wants to find a lover, he will wrap himself head and body in a large blanket, leaving only his two eyes exposed.
They stood on the roadside, waiting for the girl to arrive. This was also a temporary sign of an unmarried young man. The sign of a girl without a partner is to wear a light-colored blouse, trousers, and a small apron.
As long as a young man sees a girl dressed like this passing by, he can come up to talk and woo her. If the girl falls in love with the young man, he will take off the blanket, take the girl's hand and leave the road to talk in detail.
When the relationship between the two parties matures, the man usually asks his uncle or aunt to come to the girl's house to propose marriage. After the other party agrees, the marriage can be completed.
4. Knowledge of marriage etiquette
What you said above is correct, but they are all the same.
If you are a boy, don’t study the woman’s dowry. However, the man's gift must be based on family conditions, and out of respect for the woman's family, you must discuss the gift with your girlfriend. It doesn't matter how much, you must know that the gift is always in the hands of the two of you.
Regarding invitations, all relatives and friends who need to send invitations must use an invitation jacket. Never give high-level invitations to important people, but ordinary invitations to ordinary people.
Pay attention to the banquet. It is best to arrange one more table than the people originally scheduled to attend the wedding banquet. Also, pay attention to the relationship between the guests you invite. Do not arrange them together if the relationship is not good! Prepare a lot of wedding candies!
Getting married is the most beautiful moment in life, but it is also the moment most likely to offend people, especially your closest friends, so be sure to arrange it well!

5. What are the wedding etiquette in Wutai according to customs and customs?
The wedding etiquette in Wutai has gone through a road from complexity to simplicity.
Before liberation, men could not marry women independently. They had to be introduced by a matchmaker and approved by their parents. There are generally five steps in the marriage process, namely receiving the gift, asking for the engagement, sending off the date, and getting married.
The following is a description: Nacai: The first step in marriage is that the man's family should send gifts to the woman's family. If the gift is accepted, the marriage of the son can be discussed. Enquiry: The matchmaker has been in contact with the man and woman's family many times. After both parties confirm the marriage, they exchange life orders.
Once the life orders are exchanged, it is considered an engagement, which is called engagement. Delivery date: After getting engaged, you can get married sooner or later.
Once an auspicious event is chosen, the man’s family will bring financial gifts to the woman’s family and agree on a date for the wedding. Marriage: This is the central link of marriage, passed down from generation to generation, with many rituals and full of feudal superstition.
It usually lasts three days. On the first day of drum playing, relatives and relatives from far and near came, and in the evening there was a music troupe playing.
On the second day of the wedding, the groom takes a sedan to the bride’s house. He needs to bring his own red and green climbing belt, as well as the bride’s jewelry and phoenix crown (later changed to a corolla cheongsam). In addition to relatives, there are also people who set off cannons. The bride's family holds a banquet to receive the bride and selects a close child to place golden flowers for the groom.
After arranging flowers, you can start your journey. Entering the bridal chamber, the groom shoots his bow and removes the bride's red veil. From then on, the bridal chamber fun begins.
The first banquet was accompanied by drum music and lasted a long time. After two dishes were served, the newlyweds came to the table to toast, and everyone was happy.
After the third day, people are invited to say thank you, and the bride stays at her husband’s house for nine days. After that, the bride invited the groom to return to her natal family, which was called Yugui, and her natal family also held a banquet to receive him.
Whether the wedding ceremony is grand or not depends on the rich and the poor. Rich families are proud of luxury, while poor families strive for frugality. When the child bride gets married, she will blindly consummate the marriage, choose a good luck to live together, and forget about it.
6. What are the procedures included in my country’s wedding etiquette?
The procedures of my country’s traditional wedding etiquette are as follows: Since the pre-Qin period, people have agreed on a set of “six rites” for the union of men and women.
After generations of rulers’ advocacy, today, traditional weddings have developed into twenty or thirty procedures. The whole process of part of the traditional wedding etiquette is: giving birth to horoscopes, confirming Geng, asking for permission, marrying, choosing a date, reporting the date, breaking off the marriage, accompanying gifts, passing gifts, accompanying ten brothers, accompanying ten sisters, saying goodbye to parents, crying to marry, and proposing. , stop carriages and horses, pick up promotions, make marriage arrangements, visit the church, make house arrangements, drink "head-rectifying tea", and return home.

Cars and horses, treating evil spirits, receiving dowry, visiting the hall, passing tea, drinking wine, entering the bridal chamber, making the bed, enthroning the bed, accompanying the groom, accompanying the ten brothers, accompanying the bride, accompanying the bride, accompanying the matchmaker, thanking the matchmaker, showing the box, and wearing shoes , cook, return home. These elaborate rituals are still popular in some places today.
Blind date: Men and women decide their own marriage matters based on the opinions of their parents and a matchmaker. If they think they are a good match, they will press the ages and birth dates of both parties on the bottom of a clean tea cup in front of the statue of the Kitchen God. to speculate on God’s will. If there is nothing unusual at home within three days, ask a fortune teller to see if the year and age are compatible and whether the zodiac signs are incompatible.
In the past, some people were superstitious about the so-called big conflict in six years and small conflict in three years: when men marry at the age of two, women will not marry at nineteen: chicken and dog (rooster and dog do not get along), dragon and tiger (dragon and tiger fight) ), tiger and sheep (the sheep falls into the tiger's mouth), and the snake and rat (the snake swallows the mouse) are difficult to match. In fact, these have no scientific basis. Engagement: Before the engagement, the man will ask the matchmaker to wrap the gift money and betrothal gift in red paper, and then the matchmaker will deliver them to the woman's home.
The betrothal gift is determined according to local customs and usually includes gold and silver jewelry. The woman will give a gift in return.
When getting engaged, the man will send a "letter of approval", commonly known as "red and green paper" (two layers of paper, red on the outside and green on the inside), and the woman will send a "reply note" of approval, commonly known as "wedding paper". ". So in the old days, if a husband and wife had a quarrel, the wife would often say, "I have red and green writing paper" in order to restrain her husband.
After the "engagement", choose an auspicious day to get married.
Gifts are required when getting engaged. The gifts are mostly cash, or wedding silk curtains or wedding shafts, and are written with the words "A happy marriage for a hundred years, a prosperous marriage for five generations", "A match made in heaven", etc.
Wedding gifts are mostly embroidered or satin quilt covers, quilt tops or daily utensils. Some also give red dates, peanuts, longan and lotus seeds, which means "having a precious son early". Marriage: Three to five days before the wedding, the man gives the woman a "carriage", usually meat and fish.
The wedding day is called "Good Day", also called "Please have a drink". A few days before the wedding, the groom will personally or send someone to deliver the wedding invitations to the homes of relatives and friends.
Carrying the dowry: On the day before the wedding, the man goes to the woman’s house to carry the dowry, and the woman places the dowry in the hall for people to watch, which is called "looking at the dowry." The utensils are covered with red threads, the clothes are smoked with sandalwood, and several silver coins are placed at the bottom of the box, which is commonly known as "box money".
The dowry is moved to the man’s family and displayed in the hall for people to watch, which is also called “viewing the dowry”. The grandma takes the woman's key bag, takes the keys and opens the box, which is commonly known as "unpacking".
Setting up the bed: When getting married, setting up the bed is the top priority. Before getting married, the man will repaint the new house, and then choose the time to install the new bed based on details such as the bed's seating position and the couple's horoscope.
From the time the bed is set up to the time the bride enters the house, according to ancient customs, the bed cannot be left empty, nor can one sleep alone. A boy must sleep with him until the bride enters the house at the time of the wedding. Marriage bed-laying is different from ordinary bed-laying. It is considered to be related to a happy married life, fertility, etc., so it has always been valued.
When setting up the bed in some places, a "Quanfu" woman takes 24 pairs of chopsticks, ties them with red thread, and places them under the groom's mat. The boy who sleeps with the groom is called the "best man".
In the evening, the best man will be given steamed buns, peanuts, and chicken, which means "bao will give birth to a son." In the morning, the best man will also be given a red envelope. Sitting in a sedan chair: Traditional weddings attach great importance to sitting in a sedan chair. Sitting in a sedan chair also involves the marriage of the matchmaker and the original wife? It means that a woman can only sit once in her life.
Some wives often say, "I was carried in a big red sedan chair, but not enough to walk in" to show off their nobility. On the day of welcoming the bride, when the sedan goes out, pure tea and four-color cakes are usually offered to the "sedan god".
Guns and firecrackers will be fired along the way, red lanterns will open the way, and there will be blowing and blowing along the way. Opening noodles: Before getting married, the bride’s wife Xiniang used five-color cotton yarn to twist the hair on the bride’s face, which is commonly known as “opening noodles” (similar to the current pre-wedding beauty treatment). The guests enjoyed “opening noodles soup and fruit”.
When the groom's sedan arrives, the bride's family will set off firecrackers to welcome the sedan, then leave the door open to "stop the sedan" and wait until red envelopes are stuffed before the wedding begins. The bride's family prepares the main banquet wine at noon, commonly known as "opening wine" or "wedding wine".
Getting on the sedan chair: Before the bride gets on the sedan chair, she usually has to pretend that she doesn’t want to get married, and only after the groom’s wife urges her to dress up three times does she prepare to dress up (of course, there are cases in feudal marriages where people really don’t want to get married). Then the bride sits on her mother's lap, and her mother feeds her daughter rice, which means not to forget the kindness of nurturing her.
When the daughter is getting on the sedan chair, the mother will cry to see her off. The words she cries are mostly blessings and instructions, such as "respect your parents-in-law and respect your husband, so that good days can last long", etc. The bride also says goodbye with tears, and some even cry loudly.
Finally, the bride is carried into the sedan by her elder brother. After entering the sedan and sitting down, her hips cannot move casually to ensure safety and stability. When the bride gets up from the sedan chair, the bride's family will set off firecrackers and sprinkle tea leaves and rice grains on the sedan chair top.
The bride’s brothers accompany the sedan, which is called “sending the sedan”. In urban areas, the sedan chair must be carried around to the ancestral hall of the Shangdi Temple to obtain the approval of the ancestors and gods.
The brother will return as soon as he arrives, and he must pack some fire ashes, light incense or cigarettes from the fire, and put them in the fire jar when he returns home. This is commonly known as "pouring fire ashes", also known as "pouring fire ashes". Take the fire”. Worship: When the sedan chair enters the door, the groom's family plays music and sets off firecrackers to welcome him in a lively manner.
After stopping the sedan chair, the bride usually has to wait in the sedan chair for a five or six-year-old dressed-up bride to welcome her out of the sedan chair. When leaving the sedan door, one has to step over a wooden "saddle" painted in vermilion, step on the red felt, and be supported by the matchmaker and stand on the right side of the wedding hall, while the groom stands on the left.
The person who presides over the worship ceremony is usually the groom's grandfather or great-uncle who has a certain prestige. After the ceremony begins, the bride and groom must both worship the sky, the earth, their ancestors, their parents and each other as husband and wife.
In some places, there is a custom of kneeling in front. According to legend, whoever kneels in front can control the other person in the future. Later, the bride, accompanied by the groom, serves tea to the groom's parents, elders, and congratulatory relatives and friends.
After drinking the tea, the person being offered tea should give the couple a "good luck".
7. What are the wedding etiquette precautions for the bride and groom
In fact, there is knowledge everywhere in life.
There are etiquette everywhere in life. If a person has good etiquette, then he must have a good humanistic environment, get along well with the people around him, and be able to Gain respect from others. Professor Jin Zhengkun from Peking University taught us a lot of practical etiquette! So let’s take a look at what etiquette the bride and groom need to pay attention to at the wedding. 1 .
Whether the wedding banquet is held at home or in a hotel, when the guests begin to take their seats, the bride and groom should stand outside the door to express their gratitude for the guests' arrival (although they are far away, busy at work or unwell) Those who still come and the elderly guests may wish to say a few more words) until the last guest is seated. 2. Before the wedding banquet officially begins, it is fashionable in some places for the bride to hold a "tea ceremony" for the guests.
For the red envelopes sent by the guests at this time, regardless of whether the gift is light or heavy, the bride must express her gratitude equally. She cannot be dismissive and indifferent because of the light gift, nor can she be happy and attentive because of the heavy gift. . 3. Don’t eat and drink too much.
The bride and groom should take more care of the guests at the wedding banquet, so that relatives and friends can eat and drink well, come happy and leave satisfied. Don't just think about yourself, eat and drink too much, or even drink too much and get drunk on the spot. That would be too rude.
However, if you don’t drink any wine or eat any food, you will appear too restrained and nervous, which is also impolite. Regarding the guest's toast, even if the amount of wine is limited, it should be slightly expressed. At least you should raise your glass to express your gratitude to the guest and explain the reason why you cannot drink more.
4. When the wedding banquet reaches a certain stage (usually towards the end), the bride and groom should go to each table to toast to each guest in order of priority. When toasting, you should fill the glass with your own hands and hold it up for the guest with both hands, but do not force the guest to drink it all in one go.
After the guest puts down the wine glass, the bride and groom should say "thank you" and fill the wine glass for the guest again before toasting to the next guest. 5. When the wedding banquet is over and the guests leave, the bride and groom should stand at the door, shake hands with the guests one by one and say goodbye, and say something like "thank you for coming" and "please go slowly".
Of course, on the wedding day, the bride and groom are quite tired. There is no other way. Just hold on. Thinking about so many relatives and friends coming to bless you, you are really happy.
