It seems that from a long time ago, the ancients had a specific custom for wedding quilts, which has been used ever since!
?
1. color
In ancient times, the color requirements for wedding quilts were one red and one green, meaning "love between men and women". What are boys and girls? Actually, it is synonymous with young men and women. It means a man and a woman, in pairs. Of course, nowadays, a red wedding quilt is a must.

2. Quantity
The number of quilts should be even, including 4, 6 and 8 beds. There are many choices of quilt materials, such as silk quilts and duvets, which can be purchased according to the temperature of the four seasons and personal preferences. Nowadays, children are the treasures of the family, and parents usually prepare 6 beds, 8 beds and 10 beds, which means homonyms of "1966" and "1988".

3. Mode
Of course, the design should be based on good luck. Peony flowers, for example, have auspicious meanings and bear fruit, which is also the best blessing for newcomers. Another example is the auspicious dragon and phoenix, which is also a traditional auspicious pattern in China. For example, Yuanyang plays in the water. Needless to say, Yuanyang is said to be the most loyal couple to each other and the most suitable for newcomers. Another example is "The Hundred Zi Tu". On the one hand, it means that there are many descendants and the incense continues. On the other hand, "hundred" had infinite meaning in ancient times, that is, all good wishes were brought into play.
4. Weight
The weight of the wedding quilt is also exquisite, preferably around 4 kg, which means it is safe.
5. Date of production
In traditional customs, it is actually making wedding quilts by hand. Moreover, the date of making the quilt is also very particular. One is the second day of the second lunar month, the day when dragons look up. One is the eighth month of the lunar calendar, the day of harvest. Two days are the most auspicious days of the year. Of course, it is also necessary to choose a good day to make and buy wedding quilts now, and most of them choose the lunar calendar to prepare wedding quilts.
6. Production candidates
People who make quilts are also important. Must be a happy family life, son. ?
7. Pay attention to making the bed
You make the quilt, of course you make the bed. The bed is not made casually. The date is as special as the person who made the bed. It must be the day before the wedding, and the woman sends a person with a harmonious family and happy children to the man's house to make the bed. In contrast, the custom is that the man sends someone to the woman's house to make up the makeup the day before the wedding. In fact, we can see how important marriage is in traditional culture. Every detail, every step is exquisite, but in the final analysis, I still hope that the couple can get along well for a hundred years.
(The custom of making beds will be explained in detail in the next issue.)
