1, bridal sedan chair.
On the wedding day, the sedan chair went out and presented pure tea and four-color cakes to the "sedan chair god". Put spears and firecrackers, red lanterns open the way and blow along the way. The matchmaker led the wedding procession of the man's house and carried the sedan chair to the woman's house to marry the bride. The groom does not go to his father-in-law's house to meet the bride, but takes the wedding mother (farewell) as the messenger and goes with a name tag.
2. Visit the church.
Worship in the church, also known as heaven and earth worship, is a ceremony for newcomers to worship their ancestors, parents and elders again after worshipping heaven and earth. There are also ceremonies to worship heaven and earth, ancestors, parents and husband and wife. After the man welcomes the bride home, he will hold a memorial ceremony for the bride at some time. The main purpose is to let the newlyweds get the protection of ancestors and gods, and at the same time get the blessing and witness of elders and relatives.
3. Banquet.
Wedding banquet is actually a very important religious activity in ancient times. Before the banquet, we should worship our ancestors, and the newlyweds should seek the protection and shelter of their ancestors. After the sacrificial activities, they began to entertain guests and rushed to a new life under the witness of relatives and friends.
4. Make trouble in the bridal chamber.
It is very important for couples in ancient China to have a bridal chamber. In ancient times, many newlyweds did what their parents told them and didn't know each other well. With the new house, they can put aside their shyness, let the bride quickly adapt to the groom and their new home, and reduce the anxiety and fear on their wedding night.
5, get married and get married.
The young couple drank "acacia wine" in the new house, then cut off a strand of hair and tied it in one place. After so many ceremonies, couples can "get married" and be called real couples.
