The engagement ceremony can be held in the hotel or at the woman's home. Generally, the man needs to bring a bride price and other gifts to the woman's house to attend the engagement ceremony.

Step 2 get married

In Shanxi, the date of marriage is very important. Basically, the wedding date is calculated according to the eight characters of both men and women, which is a strict auspicious day. On the wedding day, the woman needs to hold a banquet at home to thank her relatives, friends and matchmaker, and then wait for the man to greet her.

3. Wedding ceremony

On the wedding day, the man chooses an auspicious time to leave home and go to the woman's house to meet the bride. Generally speaking, the groom will take an even number of relatives and friends and follow the planned route.

4. Wedding

After the groom receives the bride, he arrives at the wedding scene together, ready to start the wedding ceremony. The ceremony is basically no different from other regions, and it is a western or Chinese wedding process. It should be noted that when the bride gets off the wedding car, she needs the help of Quanfu people and asks the man for a red envelope. Then the couple went to the wedding room together and entered the bridal chamber.

5. Go back to the door

Going back to the door is the last process of marriage, and Shanxi also has this custom. Generally, on the second day after marriage, the groom also holds a banquet to thank relatives and friends. The woman will also send some special people to the man's house to congratulate him. Then on the third day, the bride and groom went back to their parents' home to attend the back door banquet.
