1. Color difference

First of all, what we can see at a glance is the difference of colors used in weddings between Chinese and western cultures. In China, marriage is big red, which is the representative color of celebration. I hope this couple can prosper and have good luck.

However, the representative colors of foreign marriages are white and pure white, which represents the pure love of newlyweds. Because white represents angels, I wish newlyweds a happy life after marriage.

2. Ritual differences

Secondly, it is the difference between wedding ceremonies. For example, in a Chinese wedding, the parents' link is very important, and both parties need to bow down to their parents and offer tea, which is a very important ceremony. Is China's filial piety. Marriage is to thank parents for their kindness in raising themselves. The husband and wife have already told each other about each other's parents and formally recognized the door.

In western countries, there is no such thing as offering tea and offering tea. In fact, there is only one link about parents that we can see at the wedding, and we can only see the father, that is, when the father enters the venue, the daughter holds his father's hand, and the father personally blocks his daughter in front of the groom and gives it to the other party, hoping that the groom can take care of his daughter like himself.

3. Clothing differences

China and the west get married, and there are huge differences in dress. For example, in China, the basic clothes are Tang clothes or Han clothes, while women wear summer clothes with crowns, He Xiu clothes and cheongsam. Men usually wear mandarin jackets and gowns in Tang or Hanfu.

In the west, bridal gowns and wedding dresses are usually wedding dresses. In recent years, many people in China get married in wedding dresses. Men are suits. On important occasions, men's clothing is a suit, which is the most appropriate and grand clothing.

summary

If you list them one by one, there must be many more, but in recent years, the integration and development of Chinese and western cultures, mutual reference and mutual adoption have formed a new situation of many combination weddings. For example, young people like both Western and Chinese styles. It is also a good combination to welcome their families with Chinese wedding style and hold hotel ceremonies with Western wedding style, which fully embodies the modern diversified cultural era.

Second, the comparison of Chinese and Western weddings

1. Mediator

There are differences between western hosts and western hosts in weddings. In China, the elders of new couples or people who are kind to them are usually used as wedding hosts or professional wedding agents.

Western wedding hosts are all priests or priests, because they think that weddings are sacred, and priests and priests are instigators of God, so let them be their own witnesses, that is, get God's approval and get happiness.

polite

In terms of etiquette, compared with China and the West, the etiquette in China is quite complicated. First of all, let's take the guests' gifts as an example. They are all wrapped in red envelopes, giving real money and silver. The most important thing is that the number of gifts is also certain.

However, in the west, guests don't give red envelopes to newcomers, they all give gifts of their choice. Basically, newcomers receive gifts and don't compare with each other. Whether it is expensive or not, foreign countries pay more attention to their hearts.

Step 3: cumbersome

First of all, we know that in China, etiquette is in China, red tape is a traditional thing, and marriage is a big event, so etiquette is very complicated. There are many problems in the three books and six gifts, as well as during and after the wedding. Modern times are very simple, but it can also be seen that it is still much more complicated than the West.

Third, the differences between Chinese and Western views on marriage.

1. West

Westerners' views on marriage are simple and pure. They think that marriage is my personal problem, and no one has the right to interfere, let alone a moral issue. I like a person living with him, but I don't like to be separated peacefully to find my next happiness, so the divorce rate in the west is also very high.

And the third party in marriage will not be morally condemned, because that is my freedom. There is nothing wrong with liking someone. Since you like it, pursue it bravely, regardless of whether the other person has a family or not. This has nothing to do with my pursuit of my love. On the contrary, two people who don't want to love must be together, and family values are indifferent, which is the most cruel.

2. China

China people's views on marriage are still very traditional. They think marriage is very important in life, so we must be careful. Moreover, marriage is not a matter of one person, but a matter of two families, because there will be a man and a woman's family, integrated into each other's family and recognized by each other's family, and they will be happy.

Moreover, it is a shameful thing to have a third party in marriage, and it will also be morally condemned, because traditional concepts let us know the importance of family to us. People who interfere in other people's marriages are spurned by everyone and exist like rats crossing the street. Moreover, for us, marriage is loyalty, being together for life, not being together with love, and being apart without love. Because many problems are involved, marriage itself is not a simple problem.
