The marriage customs of the Shui nationality retain a strong traditional color and pay attention to the marriage of the Ming media. The practice of consanguineous marriage and monogamy. In the past, it was very popular for cousins to get married. Before liberation, marriage was basically based on parents' orders and media's opinions. Men and women were engaged at the age of fifteen or sixteen and married at the age of seventeen or eighteen. Both men and women who are in free love must get married through honest marriage, otherwise they will be regarded as unprofitable, condemned and despised. After young men and women fall in love, they should ask their clients to tell their parents first. If the parents show their willingness, the man will invite the matchmaker to the woman's house for a gift and engagement, and choose an auspicious day to send someone to carry the piglets to the woman's house to "eat some wine." At the formal wedding ceremony, the big pig was carried to the woman's house to "eat big wine". Toast song should be sung at the party. Every time the hostess sings a song, the guests have to drink a glass of wine to show their hospitality by getting drunk. Family members of both men and women do not attend the wedding reception and send off. Except for a few places where the bride's brother carries the bride to her in-laws' house, most of them are dressed brides walking in front with a deliberately torn red paper umbrella, followed by the best man, bridesmaids and long queues carrying dowry. Generally, the bride leaves her family at noon and enters her husband's house at six or seven in the evening. She is not allowed to enter the house until it is auspicious. Relatives of the groom's family should go out to hide when the bride enters the house, and the bride can't go home until she enters the house. On the wedding night, the bridesmaid accompanied the bride, and the bride returned to her family the next day. After the wedding, the groom will invite the bride back and start the life of husband and wife. Some brides visit for the first time for a month or two, which is called "sitting at home". In fact, it is a remnant of the custom of "curtilage" marriage. On the way to the bride's wedding, thunder is the most taboo, so the wedding date is usually in autumn and winter.
