Preparation of dowry, bride price and wedding dress (collection). The man needs to send a bride price to the woman, and the woman accepts the bride price. Then it is convenient for the woman to start preparing the dowry. The most important dowry is sewing a quilt. You must find a woman with two children and a living husband to sew it. When sewing a new quilt, you must sew it with red thread, not black thread or white thread. Sewing time must be in September of the lunar calendar, not in 10. Avoid sewing quilts by widows or people who don't belong to the bride, so as not to bring bad luck to the bride. The wedding dress worn by the bride should be brand-new. If it is old, the bride will be suspected of infidelity. In addition, wedding dresses are taboo, and cotton is the best. Avoid purse, so as not to take away her family's wealth. 2. Preparation and taboo of the wedding room. The arrangement of the wedding room is called "paving the room" in ancient etiquette. The day before the wedding, the bride's family sent someone to the new house to clean up and prepare gifts for the greenhouse. As a new house, feng shui is very important. If you don't know Feng Shui, just because you like it, it's easy to do some harm to your later married life. Therefore, we should pay attention to the following points when arranging the wedding room; (1) It is best to choose a new house in a place with clear light and good air circulation. (2) Don't make the bridal chamber colorful, which is easy to have extramarital affairs. (3) Don't hang wind chimes on the windowsill of the new house, which will easily make the bride nervous, dizzy and upset. (4) The new house should not cross the horizontal wall inside and outside the house, and couples are prone to quarrel. 5] When installing a new bed, put the bed in a proper position, not facing the sharp corner of the desk closet or something. The new bed also needs to put some auspicious items on the bed, such as lilies, red dates, lotus seeds, etc., which means a hundred years of harmony and early birth.
