Participation process schedule

The process of engagement is ancestor worship, parting, offering sweet tea, welcoming guests, parents' speeches, changing tea names, exchanging engagement rings and ceremonies.

1, ancestor worship

On the day of the engagement party, before leaving, the man should burn incense to worship his ancestors, hoping that the ancestors can bless this marriage.

Step 2 set out

After the ancestor worship, the man can leave for the woman's house with friends, relatives and bride price. The number of relatives and friends should be even, and the number of limousines to the woman's house should be even.

Step 3 serve sweet tea

When the groom arrives at the woman's home, the bride-to-be will present a cup of sweet tea to the man's relatives and friends. After the sweet tea is finished, the bride will put the cup in a tray and the man will put the red envelope on the tea tray. After that, the bride will be sent to the hotel by a lucky woman.

Step 4 welcome guests

Newcomers had better arrive at the hotel in advance, and then greet the guests at the hotel gate. After all the guests were seated, the couple and their parents took their seats in turn.

5. Parents speak

Next, the ceremony begins. If both men and women are introduced by the matchmaker, the matchmaker should arrange to speak on stage and send blessings to the couple. If there is no matchmaker, parents will speak directly on stage.

6. Change the name of the tea.

At the ceremony, men and women will introduce their parents to each other, and they will also offer tea to each other's parents to change their minds. After that, both parents will give the couple red envelopes to change their minds.

7. Exchange engagement rings

The couple put an engagement ring on each other in front of all the guests, representing their commitment and restraint.

8. Li Cheng

After the ceremony, the guests can start eating.

Matters needing attention in discussing the agreement:

1. Pay attention to communication between both parties.

Before the engagement party, it is best for both parents to meet once and communicate about the engagement and bride price. The amount of bride price and dowry, wedding date, customs and habits need to be seriously discussed. Avoid the contradiction of differences due to different local customs.

Step 2 book one day in advance

In traditional Chinese weddings, elders will take the horoscope of the couple and find a suitable day. Set the engagement date in advance, generally there will be no change, and you can start booking hotels. Be sure to book a hotel in advance to avoid not booking a hotel.
