1. When will the bride price be given?
1, the day of proposal
If you propose first, you will usually give a bride price on the day of proposal. Under normal circumstances, before the couple get married, the man will officially visit the woman's house, and the families of both sides will finalize the marriage between men and women, and only wait until the wedding date is up for the man to marry the woman, so the man can choose this day as the day to send the bride price. Who said that not every place has a proposal, but it always feels more formal to propose first.
2. On the day of engagement
Different from the simplification of modern weddings, some people will pay more attention to etiquette and rules, and so will wedding activities. Usually the engagement will be more formal than the proposal before the formal marriage, so it is more appropriate to choose the bride price on the day of engagement. On the engagement day, not only the woman's parents will be present, but also the man's parents and important relatives and friends will be present. At this time, giving the bride price to the woman can not only highlight the man's attention, but also make the man look more "face-saving".
3. The day before the wedding
If it is a simplified modern wedding, if the wedding is held directly without engagement, it is usually the man who sends the bride price to the woman's house the day before the wedding. One advantage of this is that the guests attending the wedding the next day can see the amount of bride price and show the atmosphere of the wedding; But there is another disadvantage, that is, the time is too hasty, and it may not look so formal. Both families are busy with the wedding and don't have much thought about the bride price.
Step 4: Not fixed
As a matter of fact, there is no clear stipulation on which day to send the bride price before the wedding, so if the couple's families are busy and time is tight, there is no need to choose a formal occasion and time to send the bride price. The two families can discuss a convenient time for everyone, and the man can send the bride price to the woman's home. After all, it is time to show the man's attitude. As long as the bride price and etiquette are in place, time is basically not so important!
Second, how to give the bride price
1, some people don't care much about money, but they care more about what this person is like and whether it is true or not. For example, if you know the family conditions of the man, it is normal for the man's family to pay about 10 thousand as a bride price, and the woman's family will not ask the man's family to pay 100 thousand as a bride price. If the man's family pays about 10 thousand bride price and buys some wedding gifts for the woman, the man's family is also real and the woman's family can accept it. However, if the man's family considers his own family and does not intend to give a bride price or even a wedding gift, and thinks that the woman's family condition is good and the woman should post it upside down, it will hurt her heart.
2. Gift money is generally high or low, as long as both parents agree. After all, the gift money is just a way for the man to express his mind. On the price of gift money, there are different meanings, such as 10000 1 yuan, which means one in a million. If both families are well-off, they will negotiate. The man is responsible for buying a new house and the woman is responsible for decorating it.
