What is the wedding custom in Cangxi, Guangyuan, Sichuan?

My boyfriend and I are both Sichuanese. Although we attended the wedding since childhood, we don't know what the wedding etiquette is. We are going to get married this Spring Festival, but we don't know what the rules are. His parents don't know how the custom is different from before because they have been away for many years. Ask a newly married friend in Sichuan to give some advice. Thank you. We just want to know more about it so that we can calculate the wedding budget. After all, it depends on our strength. Otherwise, it wouldn't be a shame not to get it out at that time. We are all only children, and we don't require men to have a woman's home, nor do we require women to go to a man's home. Thank you! Supplement: But there are at least basic etiquette when getting married. I just don't know. I really want to consult. Otherwise I don't know what to do if I get married. That's not embarrassing. Thank you for your help. Supplement: I am not a supplement to ethnic minorities. But I feel very strange and don't know what to do. Alas! Supplement: Isn't the best man and maid of honor invited by both men and women the same person? Do you have to find it yourself? My mother asked for a banquet at home, and his mother asked for a banquet at the hotel, and it was done on the same day. So what are the requirements? Feather 1 Grade 2008- 1 1-05 I'm from Cangxi County. Many relatives got married recently, although I know you can. If you don't plan to settle in Cangxi, you can have a casual meal at the hotel. The wedding will definitely be held in the hotel. In the evening, the bride and groom will hold a small reception and get together with close friends and family. You can choose other hotels. If there is a new house in Cangxi, you have to invite friends to visit it. If you choose to hold the wedding at home, you should hold it at the woman's house first, and then the groom will go to the bride's house to pick up the bride the next morning. If bridesmaids and groomsmen are invited, you should also go with the groom to pick up the bride. Of course, when leaving, the woman will give the bridesmaid and the best man red envelopes in addition to the dowry. Then, after arriving at the man's house, a wedding will be held at the man's house at noon, and the bridesmaids and groomsmen will also receive red envelopes. What other activities can be added according to your own situation? Happy wedding!

The custom of Tujia women crying for marriage has a long history. Peng Tanqiu, a Tujia poet in Qing Dynasty, recorded that? Songs of ten sisters, loved ones; Well, it's sad to leave, and the song is a man's voice. It's sad, and tears flow with it, which means' bamboo branch'. "Before Tujia girls get married, they usually start to" cry for marriage "three days before the wedding and cry for three days and three nights. First, a square table was set up in the boudoir of the diaojiao building, and several bowls of tea were placed. The girls next door were invited to sit around in turn and began to cry about the wedding song. The bride is in the middle, called Bao, the woman on the right is called Ann, and the woman on the left is called Jie. The bride began to cry, and "Anton" answered, taking turns crying day and night. " Every four-line wedding song begins with mother crying, followed by father, ancestors, brothers and sisters. "Cry" the immediate family, and then "cry" the next family. "Cry" to which collateral relatives, then this person needs to send money and add boxes. Anyone who comes to "persuade" to cry should always cry, and women should also cry with them. The main contents include recalling the relationship between mother and daughter, thanking for the kindness of parenting, telling the pain of parting, asking brothers and sisters-in-law to take care of their elderly parents and teaching women to be human. Weeping songs are usually improvised. When you see your mother crying, you see your aunt crying. There are different crying characters and fixed crying characters, such as "than the ancients", "crying in the room", "ten paintings", "ten embroideries" and "December". Crying has melody and cadence, and it is an art of singing and crying. A married mother must ask the teacher to practice before she gets married. It is touching to cry with modal particles such as "om", "man" and "alas" when crying. Sacrificing dead relatives with songs and dances and celebrating happy marriage with crying are the inheritance of Tujia unique customs and the essence of Tujia culture. 10 years ago, Tujia girls would not cry or cry inappropriately when they got married, but would be laughed at. Now Tujia girls seldom cry when they get married. Perhaps this is also a sign that Tujia folk customs are becoming more and more fragmented. Or one of the fundamental reasons why Tujia tourism has more hot spots and fewer selling points.
