The pace of people's life is getting faster and faster, and weddings are beginning to be simplified. It is difficult to reflect the essence of many traditional cultures at weddings. As a minority in China, the Miao nationality still retains many wedding customs of its own. Through a wedding process of the Miao nationality, it can help people to re-understand this nationality and the classics of their traditional culture.
? 1. Wedding: Wedding is a grand link in Miao marriage customs. The wedding team consists of big media people, second media people, Mr. Li, wedding parents (usually uncles or aunts with two children), two people delivering wine and meat, two people carrying lunch (one carrying media lunch and one carrying everyone's lunch), the groom and the best man.
? Second, eat lunch to pay homage to the church: no matter how far away the couple are, they must have lunch, mainly to sacrifice the hungry ghosts in the mountains, which can keep everyone safe and everything goes well. After that, the man went to the woman's house, and all the gifts agreed before were handed over to the woman's house. After the ceremony, the woman will arrange to start eating.
Third, before breakfast the next day, both sides counted the dowry items. In addition to the dowry of the woman and the gifts of the guests, the newspaper should read it out before giving it to the man. After the ceremony, the woman's father or uncle will pour a glass of wine to the man's married parents, asking them to treat their children well and discipline them more, while the man's parents will thank the woman's parents for their kindness to their children and promise to treat them well.
? Fourth, send the bride: the farewell party at the bride's house is also vast, and we have to have lunch on the way. When the team arrives at the man's door, there will be a ceremony to return the horses and chariots, and then a formal worship session will begin, followed by a ceremony. When all this is over, the woman's relatives will leave. ? There are many places in the Miao wedding process that need to be carried out according to wedding customs. The preservation of traditional culture makes the Miao wedding particularly grand and lively. If there is an opportunity, we can really attend a Miao wedding and feel it for ourselves.
