Giving gifts is the most solemn ceremony in Guangdong. The date chosen by the man is about 15- 20 days before the wedding. The man's family sends the bride price and the bride price to the woman's family, and the woman's family returns the gift money to the man's family after receiving it. Bridal gifts generally include dragon and phoenix cakes, tea leaves and two pairs of coconuts. Gifts generally include oranges, pomegranates, muffins, etc.
2. Guangdong wedding custom-moving dowry
After the big gift, the woman's family needs to send the dowry to the man's family the day before the wedding. Dowry represents the identity and status of the woman's family. Cantonese people like to use camphor wood as a dowry because camphor wood symbolizes firmness. There are two ways to send dowry: make-up and make-up. Make-up means that the woman's family sends the dowry to the man's family, and make-up means that when the woman's family sends the dowry to the man's family, the man's family comes out to meet it.

Before the wedding, put a new bed in the auspicious place of the new house, put a happy quilt on it, and sprinkle with festive dried fruits such as lotus seeds and longan. After putting the child in bed, let the child jump out of bed and eat the happy fruit on the bed, which means that your son was born early. Others are not allowed to sleep in new beds, and pregnant women and women with confinement are not allowed to enter new houses.

When welcoming the bride, the groom should find the hidden red shoes, put them on the bride and take her away. When she arrived at the man's house, the bride's medicine and oil matchmaker helped her into the man's house.
Let me sum up: the above is my introduction to Guangdong wedding customs and wedding procedures, hoping to help the newcomers who are about to hold the wedding. Nowadays, due to the progress of the times, many areas have given up the traditional wedding customs, but I think good customs should be preserved and abandoned.
