Share the wedding process and what to prepare.

With regard to these processes, the processes and customs in different places may be different, but generally speaking, they will not deviate too much, so that newcomers in need can refer to them and better understand the processes in Wen Ding. Before talking about the process of Wen Ding, let's talk about what men and women should prepare before the Wen Ding ceremony, and the preparations vary from place to place. The following is also a general reference!

Before we talk about the wedding process, we should first mention the story of the peach blossom girl fighting Duke Zhou. The wedding process and customs in Taiwan Province Province are roughly derived from the folk story of the peach blossom woman fighting the Duke of Zhou. In order to seize the life of the peach blossom girl during the wedding, the Duke of Zhou set up seven evil spirits during the wedding, and the peach blossom girl was not a fuel-efficient lamp. Every evil spirit has its own methods to crack, and these methods to get rid of evil spirits later evolved into a common wedding custom in Taiwan Province Province.

These seven evils are going out, getting on the sedan chair, thunderbolt, white tiger, getting off the sedan chair, getting started and entering the house.

Go out evil spirit-When saying goodbye to her parents, Peach Blossom cracked the go out evil spirit in tears, which was crying for her life.

Get on the sedan chair-knock on the sedan chair three times before the peach blossom gets on the sedan chair, then throw the fan out and knock on the sedan chair. This is a release (personality).

Thunderbolt-When the peach blossom girl went out, Duke Zhou asked Raytheon to stop her with thunderbolt, while the peach blossom girl cracked it with a rice screen with pictures and gossip.

White tiger evil spirit-In the process of getting married, Duke Zhou asked the white tiger to ambush the peach blossom girl on the road, and the peach blossom girl tied a piece of pork on a bamboo pole for the tiger to bite.

Get off the sedan chair-get off the sedan chair, a person kicks the door of the sedan chair and breaks it open.

Door entry demon-prepare tiles in front of the gate, and the bride will break the tiles when she walks in and breaks the door entry demon.

Enter the house-before entering the house, break the house through the stove.

Except getting off the sedan chair, there is no wedding now, and other ways to break the sedan chair can be seen in the following photos.

Let's use photos to illustrate the wedding process. The wedding process is roughly as follows

1. Tie up the car. 2. Leave the limousine. 3. Ask the groom to get off. 4. break through. 6. This woman pays tribute to her ancestors. 7. Say goodbye to her parents. 8. Cover the veil. 9. Leave the house. 10. Take a limousine. 18. Throw the fan. 12. Pay tribute to the post. +05. Lift the veil 16. Eat glutinous rice balls 17. Explore the house 18. Serve tea 19. This man worships his ancestors. The wedding is finished.

Tie the car color-before the car leaves, the man will tie the car color and the car color. It is necessary for the groom to take a photo with the accompanying staff before departure!

The groom must remember to bring a bouquet before he leaves, in case he doesn't take it to the woman's house, it would be too blind! !

The departure of luxury cars-the most common luxury cars are two or six seats. Of course, I have seen three limousines, and the main limousine is usually arranged in the second one. When approaching the woman's house, the leader of the man's limousine will set off firecrackers to inform her that the wedding motorcade has arrived. Be careful not to set off firecrackers in the car! At this time, the woman's house will also set off firecrackers to welcome the wedding team!

Please get off-the woman needs a tea tray with oranges or apples in her hand to help the groom open the door. When the groom gets off the bus, he should touch the oranges or apples in the tea tray and open the door for the younger generation with red envelopes!

Shaoguan-Now most grooms who come to get married will encounter Shaoguan games. Most of them are bridesmaids and bridesmaids, which is also the most interesting part of the wedding process. Shaoguan games are divided into levels and punishments, but there is usually no such thing as entering the village safely. Punishment is absolutely inevitable. Now the punishment is really varied, and often even the bride's parents are happy to see it and laugh. Besides being the best man, the best man is often the target of the whole game. This year, the situation is getting worse. During the competition, relatives and friends of the woman's family can tie the prepared pork and bamboo poles to the ceremony car, and the bamboo poles should be tied to the first ceremony car or the main ceremony car. In fact, I have seen someone tie it, so the first gift car or the main gift car should actually be fine. Be careful not to clamp the bamboo pole with the window. If the window is put down, the bamboo pole will fall off.

The woman's family can prepare some jiaozi in advance for the man's attendants to eat, and the more exquisite ones will also prepare jujube raw cinnamon (red dates, peanuts, longan and lotus seeds). After the groom comes in, he can sit down and eat a bowl of jiaozi without rushing into the bride's room!

Submit a bouquet-the groom enters the bride's room with a bouquet. At this time, the groom will mostly kneel on one knee and give flowers to the bride with both hands. Some grooms will say something at this time, and the bride will be very moved when she hears it!

The groom helps the bride put on shoes, which is often seen recently. There are more and more weddings recently, and this bridge is about to be designed!

Women worship their ancestors-tell the gods and ancestors that today the family will marry their daughters out for a wedding ceremony. This is to see if there are shrines in each family. If there is no shrine, most of them will be omitted directly. The traditional custom is that the bride should eat the sister table before getting married, and the mother will feed it to the bride. But after so many years of filming, I have only met a girl watch and a girl watch once. Some mothers will feed jiaozi to the bride, but most of them have never eaten it!

The bride's mother gave her two red fans. Some mothers will give fans to the bride when the groom plays the game of breaking the barrier. Some will give them to fans after the farewell party, so that they can take a group photo before the farewell party, because most of them are crying after the farewell party and can't laugh when taking a group photo!

Farewell to parents-the bride and groom sit in two chairs facing outward in the living room and kneel in front of them. The bride and groom say hello to the bride and groom, and the bride and groom also express their gratitude to their parents for their parenting. Usually this is the most tearful time! In this ceremony, few brides can hold back their tears. Sometimes even the groom cries. When saying goodbye, the bride should say something of thanks to her parents. At this time, I often see her father crying. Many brides will try to hold back their tears at this time, but the custom is that the louder they cry, the better their lives will be!

Hijab-When the bride's parents get up, they will hold the groom first, and the groom will stand aside first. The parents of the bride will stand on both sides of the bride and cover her with a veil. If they are standing when the veil is covered, the bride can bend down a little, and the bride's parents will help her up and give her hand to the groom. When leaving, the matchmaker will walk in front with the leading chicken. Now almost all the leading chickens have been replaced by fake chickens, but I really photographed them.

Go out of the house-The bride goes out of the house accompanied by an auspicious woman (or matchmaker) in the woman's house. The groom will leave with the bride, and the lucky woman (or matchmaker) will block the sky and lead the bride to the limousine. When leaving the house, the bride must never look back.

Get on the limousine-After the bride gets on the limousine, the groom gets on the limousine from the other side. At this time, the man's attendants carried all the dowry on the limousine and invited the bridesmaids of the woman's family to get on the limousine together with the dowry!

Throw a fan-after the woman lights firecrackers, the limousine can start. There are two fans, one for the husband's family and the other for the husband's family, which means to leave the past bad temper at her mother's house and not bring it to her husband's family. Tie a red envelope on the fan left at her mother's house. After the limousine starts, the bride can throw the fan out of the car. At this time, no one can say goodbye to her family when she leaves her home.

After the car started after the ceremony, the groom got off the bus and handed the post to the woman's parents. The groom returned to the ceremony car, which drove to the man's house. This post is actually based on the situation, not necessarily at this time. Some men's families will send someone else to pick up the woman's parents to the restaurant. When the car is approaching the man's home, the motorcade will light firecrackers to inform them that it is approaching home. In fact, traditionally, firecrackers are lit once when crossing the bridge and turning. It is also important to meet another group of limousines on the road, but it is not always to set off firecrackers all the way now. Most people will turn around and set off firecrackers when they get home, and the man's house will also set off firecrackers to welcome the motorcade back!

Get off.-Bride, get off. The man should have a tea tray sent by the younger generation, with apples or oranges on it to help the bride open the door. After the bride touches the apple or orange, she will give the younger generation an opening gift. Both apples and oranges can be used to open the door. When the bride gets off the bus, the matchmaker will use a rice screen to help the bride block the sky. The purpose of holding a rice screen to cover the sky is that the bride is the biggest on the wedding day, but it can't be too big. Block the sky with a rice screen. The most common saying is that pregnant brides are afraid that Missy's gossip will hurt the baby in their bellies, so they all use black umbrellas instead, but many unmarried brides in the north will also use black umbrellas instead!

Getting started-before entering the door, the matchmaker will sprinkle edge powder (lead powder) first, saying that people will come to the edge. When entering the door, the bride should pay attention to crossing the threshold and not stepping on it. Now the stove and tile are probably put together, and most of them go through the stove before stepping on the tile. Of course, I have also encountered the situation of stepping on the tiles first and then stepping on the stove. Remember not to lift the skirt too high when crossing the stove, just mention that you can cross the stove.

Enter the bridal chamber-prepare a pair of groom's trousers in advance in the new house, put the change in the red envelope bag and then put it in the trousers pocket. After entering the bridal chamber, sitting for about five minutes means that two people wear the same pair of trousers and work together. Putting change in your pants also means sitting in the vault!

On the wedding day, no one can sit in the new bed, and the bride can only lie in bed before going to bed at night to avoid the bride's poor health all year round. In addition, Mi Sai's Taiwanese is the same as Mi Tai's. Putting it on a new bed means bringing a baby, which means giving birth to a baby ~ ~

Lift the veil-after sitting for a while, the groom can lift the veil for the bride. At this time, the groom should gently lift the veil so that the photographer can have time to capture the most beautiful picture ~ after lifting the veil, of course, he should stamp it. The groom kisses the bride!

Eat glutinous rice balls-after the veil is lifted, the matchmaker will bring two bowls of glutinous rice balls, and the more exquisite ones will prepare raw cinnamon (red dates, peanuts, longan and lotus seeds). When the couple eat glutinous rice balls, the matchmaker will tell them that they are very sweet and will have a son next year.

Looking at the house-normally, my mother and uncle will look at the house in three days, but now it's mostly just a formality. Many people will drop by to see the house on their wedding day. This process is also to let the man's family know that the woman has a strong backer and cannot bully the bride. After seeing the house, I'm going to see my mother and uncle!

Tea-At this time, the couple will bring a cup of tea to their parents. At this time, parents can also introduce their relatives and friends to the bride. After drinking tea, the man's parents will also give them red envelopes.

People worship their ancestors-tell God and ancestors that today's wedding has come to a successful conclusion.

The wedding is complete-it's time to take a group photo after the whole wedding ceremony! !
