Differences between Chinese and Western Weddings: Ritual Differences
In Chinese weddings, parents are very important, and new people need to pay New Year greetings and offer tea to their parents. This is a very important ceremony to spread China's filial piety. Marriage is to thank parents for their kindness in raising themselves. The couple have informed each other's parents and formally recognized the door.
In western countries, there are no links such as offering sacrifices and tea. In fact, people can only see a link about their parents at the wedding, and only see their father, that is, when the father enters the venue, the daughter holds his father's hand, and the father personally blocks his daughter in front of the groom and gives it to the other party.
