At home or in a hotel?

Your two questions: 1. You go to Zhangjiakou first, stay in a hotel, and pick you up at the hotel on the wedding day. 2. Communicate with the man in advance, how many people will lead the wedding, and only a few people will see him off (not counting bridesmaids).

I come from Zhangjiakou. The pressure to pick up girls here is like this. In principle, around 8: 00 in the morning, the man sends a motorcade, and even-numbered brides (such as 2, 4, 6 and 8) follow the car to pick up the bride's house with a small amount of dowry (such as two boxes of snacks and two bottles of white wine), and the groom waits at home (note that it is the husband's house, not the new house, hehe. )。 After arriving at the bride's family, the two families greeted each other politely, and the bride's family sent an equal number of people (excluding the bride and the maid of honor) back to her husband's family with a small amount of dowry (also a symbolic washbasin). At the door of her husband's house, the groom took the bride home. In addition, there is a saying called "Auntie doesn't take it, Auntie doesn't send it, Auntie doesn't need it". In other words, the man must not let his aunt go to see the bride off, and the woman must not let her aunt go, and the people who pick up and drop off are generally peers.

As for brides who are not local to Zhangjiakou, as far as I know, there is no mention of picking them up in the early morning. . . Even in Beijing, think about it. . . I set off at 4 am to pick up my relatives. Unless my home is on the edge of Badaling Expressway, even if I am in Deshengmen, it will be 7: 30. It takes at least half an hour to leave home at 8 o'clock, and there is still traffic jam when going north. . . My husband's house is now 12 o'clock. Is the following procedure to do, shoot, grab shoes, exchange things and eat noodles? Go straight to the hotel? Impossible, right? So ... . The general habit of Zhangjiakou people is to let all the relevant people of the woman stay in the hotel in Zhangjiakou in advance, and then change her family into a hotel. . . All right, just do as I said before. By the way, my wife and I are both in Beijing. She is not from Zhangjiakou. We also got married in Zhangjiakou in August. . . The hotels are all arranged.
