Why do you like fish and butterflies when you get married in ancient Chinese New Year?
There is also a typical pattern of "fish changing into baby" in folk wedding customs, which symbolizes the reproductive characteristics of fish. As shown in the picture, the patterns are generally heads and fish bodies, which are often taken together with lotus patterns to form auspicious patterns with different postures, implying the transformation of children and life.

Besides reproduction, fish also symbolizes love. In ancient times, fish was regarded as the messenger of love, and there was a custom of delivering books by fish between men and women. There is a messenger named Khan in the biography of Han Su Wu, who said that the son of heaven shot a wild goose in the forest, which was enough to bind the book. Therefore, letters are also collectively referred to as "fish geese".

Today, we still describe two of a kind between men and women as a "fish and geese pass books". In addition, in the folk paper-cutting art, "Fish Lotus Map" and "Shuang Yutu" flowers often appear when getting married, so as to wish the newlyweds a happy life and love each other.

From ancient times to the present, love stories related to Hu Die are touching, such as "Liang Zhu become a butterfly" and "Korean wife become a butterfly".

Under the influence of these beautiful legends, butterflies have also become a symbol of harmony for new couples, painted on clothes and ornaments as a symbol of praying for love.

Because butterflies love flowers, flowers bloom and butterflies fly, symbolizing the beauty and love of lovers. Therefore, lake butterflies are often combined with various flower boats to form a pattern of "recent love flowers".

The decorative patterns of "Butterfly Lovers" (such as tables) are the most common in the embroidery works of traditional wedding customs. Butterflies are changeable in shape, smart and lively, rich in color and diverse in embroidery stitches.

In addition, there are various patterns of double butterflies dancing in pairs, which are also common auspicious decorative patterns in wedding customs.
