Marriage customs in Shaoxing

In rural areas, banquets are arranged in front of your own house, or at home at noon and then go to the hotel at night.

Generally, people on the bride's side will find it difficult to pick up the bride in the morning, and then the bride will say goodbye to her parents and get on the bus to go to the groom's house. The groom's family will prepare more things. It is best to be a virgin, but you must be unmarried. After the bride takes it, she holds a torch around the couple, and then the older male elders on the groom's side will help the couple spread linen. The couple can't step on the ground directly, so there are two or three linen bags. Pick them up one by one and spread them out like dragons, then go to the living room of the new house. The bride will sit on the chair covered with red cloth, and the bride will sit on the chair that Sina doesn't have. At the same time, the bride will move the dowry into the new house. The dowry is just some small things, such as quilts and buckets for children and grandchildren. Then the couple will sit on the bed in the new house and eat dumplings. After they get married, they will invite relatives and friends to eat snacks in the living room, and the couple will also go. Because the woman will wrap some sugar or red envelopes in the quilt she takes to the new house, and look at the customs of various places in odd and even numbers. This is for the grandmothers who help the man make the bed. They will take it themselves, so it is better for the couple to leave them.

That's all I know. I have to let older people know the details.

All hands up, hope to adopt.
