Aquarium wedding etiquette

The marriage custom of the Shui nationality has a strong traditional color and pays attention to the marriage of the Ming media. Before marriage, young men and women can make friends and fall in love by singing in festivals and fairs. Even if it is a free love, it must be a marriage reported by the media, otherwise it is impolite and will be discriminated against. Young men and women should ask someone to tell their parents after they fall in love. If the parents show their willingness, the man invites the matchmaker to the woman's house to give gifts and betrothal, and chooses an auspicious day to send someone to carry the piglets to the woman's house to "eat some wine." At the formal wedding ceremony, the big pig was carried to the woman's house to "eat big wine". Toast song should be sung at the party. Every time the hostess sings a song, the guests have to drink a glass of wine to show their hospitality by getting drunk. Family members of both men and women do not attend wedding banquets and send-offs. Except for a few places where the bride's brother carries the bride to her in-laws' house, most of them are dressed brides walking in front with a deliberately torn red umbrella, followed by the best man, bridesmaids and long queues carrying dowry. Usually leave her family at noon and enter her husband's house at six or seven in the evening. I can't enter the door until it's auspicious. Relatives of the groom's family go out to hide before the bride enters the house, and the bride can't go home until she enters the house. On the wedding night, the bridesmaid accompanied the bride, and the bride returned to her family the next day. After the wedding, the groom will invite the bride back and start the life of husband and wife. Some brides visit for the first time for a month or two, which is called "sitting at home". In fact, it is a remnant of the custom of "curtilage" marriage. On the way to the bride's wedding, thunder is the most taboo, so the wedding is held in autumn and winter.

The Shui nationality has the custom of uxorilocal. The husband was adopted by the woman's family, and the marriage procedure was similar, except that the woman married the man. After marriage, couples can divorce if they are not in harmony, but the restrictions are very strict. If the woman proposed it first, she would pay back the money the man spent when he got married.

In the past Shui society, there was still the custom of aunt and uncle expressing marriage. That is, my aunt's daughter is going to marry my uncle's son as a "back relative". If an uncle has no sons or is over age, he is allowed to open his marriage with the outside world, but he has to pay an uncle's wedding money, also called "nephew money".

The first thing an aquarium girl should do after getting married is to carry water.
