Northern wedding customs vs southern wedding customs
0 1 different wedding time
An unwritten rule of the northern wedding banquet: "At noon, the bride is lucky, the bride sits down and the guests eat", which immediately divides the northern brides into two types. The first one got up earlier than the chicken, and began to make up early in the morning, rolling his eyes to make people draw eyeliner and paste eyelashes; What's more, this girl stayed up late tonight to play mahjong and cards with her sisters, just to use up the last second of being single.
Brides in the south are more sure. It is not too late to get up and get dressed after the news is broadcast on the radio. Because the southern wedding banquet usually starts at five or six o'clock in the evening, it is five or six hours longer than the northern bride. After picking up the bride at noon and having a simple lunch, the young couple still have time to go out with the photographer and cameraman to shoot on location, and then they can go to the hotel leisurely.
Ps: If you are a new bride in Baotou and decide to learn from the South, I think you should think twice, because most wedding banquets held in the North are "second marriages".
Who is sitting at the main table? Is the new house noisy?
New house, is it noisy? Main table, parents or friends? The wedding customs of the two cities in the north and the south are actually diametrically opposed-northerners rarely hold weddings, and parents and elders sit at the main table; In order to get married, the south will go to a luxury hotel to open a room, and the main table is full of unmarried young people. The most deep-rooted difference, if perceived visually, is whether you can continue to see the sun or only the moon after you leave the hotel.
03 different wedding atmosphere
Weddings in the south usually pay attention to romantic and warm atmosphere.
The north usually pays attention to the lively and festive atmosphere, especially in the northern countryside. Authentic Chinese weddings are very lively and warm. Shooting, blowing the horn, all kinds of musical instruments together, many of them have to salute. I have been to such a wedding, and there were a lot of fireworks. The evening was beautiful.
The advantage of northern men at wedding banquets
When it comes to the budget of the wedding banquet hotel, northern men have a realistic foundation and will not be soft-hearted at critical times. Moreover, our ancestors have long known that dinner is more expensive than lunch. The northern wedding banquet was a big battle, and I invited lunch early. Anyway, the red envelope was accepted. Small-scale attack, night friction, double human income-fresh mind and long-term vision, in this respect, northern men are more savvy than southern men. So I think it is wise for you to marry a northern man.
What's the difference between the wedding customs in the north and the south?
1, the time of the wedding reception
The custom in the north is to hold a wedding banquet at noon, but it is quite different in the south. It is customary to hold a wedding banquet at night. This is because when the Song Dynasty moved south, it brought the folk culture of the Central Plains to the south. Northerners often choose to hold a second wedding banquet in the evening. If the wedding reception is held at noon, it is more convenient for some relatives and friends who are far away from home to go home after the wedding. If they drink too much at noon, they can take a break and wake up. If you hold a wedding in the evening and have two banquets a day, it will definitely increase the cost.
2. Best man and bridesmaid
Marriage in the south generally requires that the best man and bridesmaid are unmarried men and women and can be lovers; Some places in the north require married men and women, but not husband and wife.
3. Wedding ceremony
In the whole wedding ceremony, the Southern Wedding Master not only plays the role of the host, but also invites programs such as singing or magic tricks to entertain the guests. Finally, they will interact with the guests in the game and send all kinds of small toys or red envelopes. In the north, the master of ceremonies usually presides over the wedding process, enlivens the atmosphere a little, and then enters the banquet.
My personal voice
In fact, I have said so much, whether in the south or the north, everyone has the same meaning and blessing for the wedding, that is, I hope the couple can have children early and grow old together. Whether you "marry" a southerner or a northerner, you are all descendants of the Chinese people. More importantly, as long as you are "happy" after marriage, your parents always have the same expectations for you. I guess you like it.
