What's so particular about dowry?
1. The man's family should be greeted with drum music, and "sending wedding clothes" is very cautious. When a rich family marries a daughter, they can just take the opportunity of "giving a wedding dress" to boast that they are rich. Some people will also accompany the land and shops. The way to accompany the land is that several people carry a few pieces of adobe.
2. If you send it to the store, take down the signboard of the store and carry it to the man's house together. After the man receives these wedding dresses, the groom will go to the woman's house to "thank makeup". Thank you for kowtowing with makeup, and then go home.
3. Put a red envelope on the four corners of each dowry box. Some people will pack copper coins, while others will pack corner tickets, which is also determined according to local customs.
4. Prepare two red buckets, also called descendants buckets. The bucket was wrapped in a big red cloth, and there were 8 items in the bucket. For example, red flowers, red dates, longan, five red duck eggs and so on. The other bucket is full of rice, with some red dates and longan on it. Put cypress branches and red words on both barrels.
5. Red washbasin, where the bride wants to help her father-in-law, and the shoes, socks and hats bought by her mother-in-law should be one for each person. Put socks, peanuts, etc. It's in the shoes.
6. Prepare 2 sets of bedding, usually traditional red quilts. Represents celebration.
The woman's dowry taboo:
1. On the day before the wedding, two adults of both sides can't meet, so it is not appropriate for the woman to send the bride's immediate adult relatives with her when giving the dowry.
The woman wants a boy who is close to her to take the key to the dowry box. Now, all she has to do is go together, which is also called "dowry".
All dowry things and dowry vehicles should be tied with red silk.
4. The number of dowry and vehicles should be even, which also means pairs.
The man should also give candy and money to all dowry people, and more money should be given to dowry boys.
6. It's unlucky that dowry items can't be sent to bed, pot or clock.
7. You can send some bedding, washbasins, mirrors, etc. But even numbers are the best, yes men.
