There are too many things to prepare for the wedding. Do you know what preparations are needed for the wedding?

According to the custom of my hometown, before the wedding, we should prepare wedding invitations, wedding books, alcohol and tobacco, wedding candy, red envelopes, red paper, wedding characters, wedding quilts, furniture, wedding rooms, wedding banquets, three golds, bride price and so on. In fact, every place has its own customs, so the things to be prepared are different. Like my hometown, these things that need to be prepared are only necessary for the wedding, and some things need to be prepared according to the specific situation. And these things should also be prepared by men's doubles or women's doubles, not only by one party. Let me talk about the details below.

The items to be prepared by both parties include wedding invitations, red envelopes, red paper, tobacco and alcohol, wedding candy and so on. Marriage is a happy event and a big event. Both men and women should prepare these items and use them when treating guests.

Invitation: After the two parties confirm the guests, they should prepare an invitation (invitation), write the guest's name on it, and then send it to the guests to invite them to the wedding.

Red envelopes: red envelopes are necessary for weddings, and they are needed in many places, including: returning gifts at the sign-in desk, changing your mouth, the best man's bridesmaid's fee and the bottom of the wardrobe.

Tobacco, alcohol and candy: cigarettes are more useful than wine. Gifts should be given to those who hang gifts, help at weddings, at banquets, and toast the bride and groom. As long as wine is used at the party, candy should be used for gifts and banquets.

Red paper is generally used to write couplets, and happy characters are used to stick on walls, windows and doors.

Items to be prepared by the man There are many items to be prepared by the man, which are of course of high value, including: wedding room, wedding car, bride price, three gold, bride's new clothes, wedding banquet and so on.

Wedding room and car: If the wedding room is ready-made, there is no need to prepare it. Just decorate it directly. If not, you should start preparing. In some places, the wedding car is accompanied by the man, and the man doesn't have to prepare it, but most men have cars, so the wedding car can actually be skipped. Of course, there must be a wedding car at the wedding, which requires a process.

Bride gift: Bride gift is a big custom in our country. It can not only let the woman see the sincerity of the man, but also make the man look generous, so no matter how much, you should be prepared.

Three golds: Three golds are gifts that the man bought for the woman, including rings, necklaces and bracelets. But there is no fixed requirement for the three gold. It can be a bracelet or a bracelet, as long as the woman likes it.

Bride's new clothes: there is a custom in our hometown that before marriage, the man's parents should pay for three sets of clothes for the woman. If you don't buy it, you can change it into money and let the bride buy it herself.

Wedding reception: The wedding reception and the layout of the wedding scene are all prepared by the man. But now generally speaking, both sides are in one place, so both sides prepare together. If they are far away, they prepare separately.

What the woman wants to prepare is actually a dowry. In our hometown, dowry is a household item, including household appliances, home textiles, furniture, household items and so on.

Household appliances: Household appliances are essential dowry products. There are generally three kinds of household appliances: color TV, washing machine and refrigerator.

Home textiles: Home textiles are bedding, including four-piece sets, wedding quilts, blankets and so on. However, there is an unwritten rule for preparing these items, that is, two people prepare in groups, usually six, eight, twelve and sixteen.

Furniture: Furniture is not a necessary dowry, only for families with better conditions, such as sofas, coffee tables and TV cabinets.

Other items: these are small items, generally pots and pans, thermos bottles and so on. Although small, they must be available.

That's all I can think of, but these things don't need to be prepared everywhere. They can only be used as reference and may not be applicable to your place.
