What is the wedding custom in Yancheng, Jiangsu?
Then there's the engagement. Every engagement these days should ask God for advice. The man chooses an auspicious day of the zodiac to send a bride price to the woman's home (money: it depends on others, some don't want it, and some may need 30,000 to 40,000 jewelry). After the engagement, the unmarried son-in-law will send a "door-to-door gift" to the woman's home on holidays, usually several copies, but all of them must have alcohol and tobacco, and uncles and grandfathers will give you lucky money.
Getting married is to set a date with the woman and find a child to press the bed the day before the wedding. On the wedding day, red envelopes are mainly given to the younger generation. Generally, 66 is enough. If she has a brother, it may cost a lot of money to move the box, estimated at two or three thousand. Under normal circumstances, he will give 1600/2600 a red envelope first, and then add it, usually three times. On the wedding day, if the wedding car doesn't arrive at the woman's house, notify the woman first. When you arrive, he will let you have tea with the best man (that is, boiled water and some biscuits). Take more firecrackers and set them off when you leave. In addition, you can set off firecrackers to make up your makeup, and let the bride get on the bus after three times. In addition, marriage usually brings a few things: two carp, half a catty of ribs and a bowl of rice.
Within three days of their wedding, the groom will accompany the bride back to her parents' home as a guest, and the bride must return on the same day, which is called "going back to her parents' home".
The following is what others wrote elsewhere:
1。 When we were about to get married, my husband's family had to make ten quilts, and my mother-in-law had to make them herself. Then they were taken to their daughter-in-law's house to show that they really want to marry and will not treat your girl badly. Then they pulled the quilt back and put it in the yard, so that the new wife could see it as soon as she came in, which reassured her.
2。 The bride should wear red on the wedding day. When I went to pick up my daughter-in-law, many little boys "blocked the door" when I let the man in. I had to go in twice. The first time, I took a handful of flowers and gave them to that woman. Then go out, come in and pick it up, and give a few red envelopes.
3。 Then take it, and every time you meet a fork in the road, sprinkle money (coins) wrapped in red paper, and sprinkle it in the river when you cross the bridge. This seems to be telling good news to immortals everywhere and wishing the couple well.
4。 Then I got home. As soon as you enter the village, you should slow down, honk your horn and play music. Many children asked for red envelopes and prepared many red envelopes. ...........
5。 When entering the door, the bride has to go through three levels. First, she took a sieve to show that she had forgotten her old home and moved to her new home. Then she held a brazier, hoping that life would be prosperous. Then step on the saddle and it says: An Zi, there is a safe baby.
6。 After Sandao Pass, you will be in-laws. A sister-in-law will hand a comb mirror to the bride and call it "head change" The main purpose is to make the bride look beautiful when she meets her in-laws, and it also means that her sister-in-law will live in harmony. It's warm to think about it
7。 Then eat the sedan chair rice, eat the sedan chair rice in the sedan chair, and cook it in the sedan chair (but it is all cooked, it should be said that it is raw). Then, the mother-in-law asked if the new daughter-in-law was born, and the bride said yes, and asked if others were born. Everyone said yes, and everyone was happy. But getting off the sedan chair has a practical significance. It's still early for dinner, and people are tired after a long time. We should prepare to get off the sedan chair and let everyone, especially the new wife, pad their stomachs so as not to be hungry.
8。 Then worship heaven and earth, change their names to parents, and everyone will say something auspicious and so on. This is all the same. However, it is probably that rural people are more straightforward, and everything I say sounds quite X.
9。 Behind it is a unique pulling force. There are two happy bricks on the roof of the new house, wrapped in red paper. Before the bride came, the bricks of happiness were erected separately. As soon as the bride and groom enter the new house, there are special people who tie up the bricks of happiness, then set off firecrackers and sprinkle sugar, safflower and dates on the roof. This is an important ceremony at the top. Brick by brick, it is a family.
10。 When you enter the new house, you should eat first and arrange a table according to your relatives and friends. The bride and groom should eat together with their nearest sister-in-law and mother-in-law (note that only the groom is a man), and other men should eat at another table, and men and women should eat separately. Only this table is mixed. Are you afraid that the bride is not used to it or that her mother-in-law and sister-in-law will embarrass the newly married wife and let the groom protect you?
1 1。 This meal will take several hours, so let's talk while eating. After eating, the parents-in-law brought the bride and groom a toast to recognize people. Usually, the bride asks for someone, and they are all very happy. They give red envelopes and small gifts, and at first glance they are really happy.
12。 After dinner, it is evening. Those distant relatives will say goodbye, and there is no custom of making bridal chamber here. That is, the mother-in-law came over with a boy in her arms, let him roll on the bed of the new house, sprinkle peanuts, dates and sugar, and everyone left. Sister-in-law and mother-in-law are chatting in the other room. They even said: this time tomorrow, we should wait for next month. . . . . . . . . . . . .
13。 If you marry a daughter, there is another rule, that is, you should send several gift boxes (not counting dowry). The gift box contains gadgets and food that my daughter likes, for fear that her daughter will be homesick and can't get used to her husband's family's meals. On the third day of marriage, the bride and groom will go back to their parents' home together, which is called "going back to the third", so that parents can see how their daughter is doing and speak freely if they are dissatisfied.
