According to "Huanhuan Yanling", the master of ceremonies for weddings, Zhou weddings were inherited from the Shang Dynasty in ancient Zhixia, merged into the Western Zhou Dynasty, where rites and music were founded, and developed into the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which was very gentlemanly and became the embryonic form of Chinese weddings. Later, the wedding of Han nationality gradually evolved on the basis of Zhou marriage.
The groom is from Sichuan. Because of his love for literature and history, he knew and fell in love with the bride "Yu Xia Fengyun". They all think that "the ceremony of being in the same prison" seems complicated, but it shows the ideological realm of "never leaving, never leaving, and becoming one" between husband and wife, which is a "solemn and beautiful prayer". With like-minded support and planning, they decided to hold the wedding in full accordance with the weekly wedding procedure.
At 5: 30 in the evening, the groom was dressed in a black and red Jue Duan Xuan, and the bride was dressed in dark black pure clothes, holding prison ceremonies, toasting, getting married, entering the palace, tying hair and tying tassels. The ceremony ended with a hymn of "Husband and wife in full bloom, caring for each other, admiring their Confucius family ...".
On that day, * * * more than 30 relatives and friends witnessed the wedding. Although many relatives seem to understand, everyone thinks that such a dignified and quiet wedding is refreshing compared with the complexity and noise of the wedding scene. On the evening of June 65438+1October 65438+September, 2008, a couple in Beijing held a solemn and elegant traditional Han wedding-Zhou wedding. The couple's costumes, venue layout and musical instrument design are all designed according to the wedding customs spread from Zhou Dynasty to Qin and Han Dynasties.
Different from the amorous feelings wedding after the Tang Dynasty, the whole wedding ceremony was held at dusk, and the dress was also Xuanyong color. The whole ceremony focused on the newlyweds entering the same prison, drinking to worship heaven, eating sacrificial meat and drinking a glass of wine, which highlighted the traditional wedding cultural connotation of bitterness between husband and wife and emphasized the sacredness and ritual of the wedding as a "gift of ceremony".
In the wedding ceremony, welcoming the new, succeeding generations, welcoming children, offering geese, worshiping heaven and earth, tying the knot in the same prison and tying the knot with flowers all reflect the profound ancient charm and are full of the sacred and unique charm of traditional culture.
The etiquette director of Hanyifang, the organizer, said: With the revival of traditional culture, the products that have been explored and practiced have become quite mature, and the traditional wedding series products of Hanyifang have become more and more popular, and the weekly wedding seems to be more favored by newcomers. 2011110, Renaissance Wuhan Guangming Hotel, after the wedding shows in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and the Ming and Qing Dynasties, once again staged the weekly wedding show in the Han Dynasty, which opened the eyes of the newcomers in Jiangcheng.
Through the live performance of the actors, the scene of the couple worshiping heaven and earth, drinking cups and uncovering their hijab two thousand years ago seems to have crossed the eyes. The man took the goose as a gift, and the woman came to the door in a carriage. Both men and women are tied together with a red rope tied with a concentric knot, praying for blessings, worshipping three times and untied cherry blossoms ... This ceremony is very different from traditional Chinese weddings, including sedan chairs, gongs and drums, cockscomb and dresses.
Retro weddings are very popular. The wedding planner Wuhan Tianjiao Festival wedding said that the Zhou wedding more than 2,000 years ago was more suitable for couples who admired culture and didn't want to fall into the stereotype. "Zhou wedding" is a kind of wedding that adopts the etiquette system of Zhou Dynasty. This is the prototype of the traditional wedding in China, including the "six gifts" of receiving gifts, asking names, accepting gifts, inviting guests and welcoming guests. The etiquette system of the Zhou Dynasty in the Han Dynasty is relatively complete, and the "weekly wedding" in the Han Dynasty also presents the "weekly wedding" style.
In view of the fact that it is too quiet and lengthy to completely restore the ancient ceremonies according to historical materials, Zhou weddings are all introduced. While fully retaining the traditional wedding customs, modern expression elements are added to make the guests present feel novel and unique, yet lively and festive. The ceremony lasted 40 minutes.
The profound cultural heritage of traditional weddings is mainly reflected in the style of utensils and ceremonies used. This week's wedding is tailor-made for the new couple according to this idea, and it is also another successful example of week's wedding.
According to the couple, it is very meaningful to put on their own national costumes and Hanfu and hold a traditional wedding for themselves. Today, more and more things representing national traditions are re-expressed. The solemnity and simplicity of the Zhou wedding ceremony, and the profound exposition of the national spiritual connotations such as "filial piety to parents", "the righteousness of husband and wife" and "the foundation of human relations" are far from being comparable to the popular western-style weddings.
Marriage is a major event in life, and every couple wants their wedding to be special, so that everyone can witness their happy moments and leave precious memories. Yesterday, the reporter attended a unique wedding from Dongguan. Let's have a look. At the wedding scene, the bride and groom entered the arena, rode in the stable, cleaned up, and enjoyed themselves for thousands of years.
Accompanied by the orderly congratulations, the bride and groom dressed in Hanfu walked into the scene together, and the Hanfu Week wedding officially began.
In the once-a-week wedding, the bride and groom should wash their hands first to show the beginning of a new life, then raise chopsticks at the same table to eat meat, to show that the two of them will go hand in hand from now on, and then the two couples should raise their glasses and drink before the swearing-in ceremony.
According to the wedding emcee, members of Hanfu Troupe cut a lock of hair from the bride's head and a lock of hair from the groom's head, then tied them together and gave them to the bride in a sachet, which is also a permanent memorial and collection. After this etiquette, they can be called married couples.
The bride told reporters that as far as China is concerned, it has been passed down for thousands of years, so we are just doing a revival, because our wedding is very serious, which means that husband and wife must be beautiful for a long time.
Finally, the couple paid their respects under the gaze of many relatives and friends. Although the whole wedding ceremony was quiet and beautiful, it was impressive.
According to a friend at the scene, I feel very touched, especially for such a novel wedding. In fact, we don't even know what a Chinese wedding is like. We did it today.
Another friend said, "I feel very good. This is a fashion that returns to nature. I think it is still relatively new. "
The weekly wedding pays attention to the loyalty and gratitude of the new couple. Although simple and clean, it can not only witness the happiness of new people, but also inherit civilization, which is really impressive.
