Shandong marriage custom refers to the customs of Shandong people. Every place has its own customs, among which the wedding customs are the most obvious. With the passage of time, the traditional marriage customs in Laiwu have been gradually replaced, and only a few traditional marriage customs in Shandong have been preserved.

Second, blind date.

Contemporary young men and women can fall in love freely. If they think it's time to get married, both men and women will tell their families to let their parents know the basic situation of their partners. If both parents agree, the man will bring gifts to the woman's house to meet. If the woman's parents are satisfied, the woman chooses a gift, and the man pays to go to the man's house to meet his parents. Parents will give the woman one or two hundred yuan to let the girl buy clothes and so on.

Third, engagement.

Both parents are satisfied that the man needs to find a respected matchmaker. When the man gives a gift, the matchmaker goes to the woman with the gift to propose marriage and discuss the engagement place and participants, and then feeds back the information to the man. A few days before the engagement, the man will take the woman to choose gold earrings, gold necklaces and some clothes. On the day of engagement, some relatives, representatives and matchmakers of both parties will be invited to dinner. During the dinner, the man will give the gift money and ornaments to the matchmaker, and the matchmaker will give them to the woman.

Fourth, get married.

Both men and women get their certificates on auspicious days of the zodiac. The matchmaker takes the man's birthdates to the woman's house once, and the woman asks someone to sign a character to determine the wedding date. The matchmaker should discuss the requirements in the process of marriage when taking the post of birthday. The basket-shaped utensils made of rattan are shaped like gold ingots and used to hold wedding supplies. Before the wedding day, the man should give the woman two bottles of wine. When getting married, the woman needs to pour out the wine and put two bottles of water to relax. In fact, there were many previous marriage customs, but with the development of the times, many customs were gradually forgotten.
