Six rites refer to the steps from courting relatives to matchmaking to getting married on the last night.

On the wedding day, the man will go to the woman's house to get married, and the woman will stay at her parents' house the night before.

Simplified Chinese wedding process

What should I do if I don't want a complicated Chinese wedding, but I want to have some characteristics? The wedding process without sedan chair and high hall can be divided into the following seven steps from the opening to the wedding:

First of all, the wedding opening.

The opening ceremony of Chinese wedding is a great test for the MC, whose culture and literary talent require higher connotation and level. It is best to use some words to express the blessings and greetings to the wedding; For example: Ladies and gentlemen, friends, how are your elders and relatives at noon? First of all, welcome everyone to this festive hall as scheduled on this happy and beautiful day to witness an emotional feast! At this moment, the house is decorated with lights, laughing and laughing, and its time has come. Please deacons perform their duties, the audience watch the ceremony, and play auspicious sounds! After such an open visit, people will gradually integrate into the atmosphere of such a Chinese wedding!

Second, invite new people.

The bride and groom were present and made a grand appearance. The groom took one end of the red silk and gave the other end to the bride. The bride took HongLing in her right hand, covered her head with a red veil, and walked slowly into the venue with an apple in her left hand. A red silk+silk leads two people to embroider the ball, and the old moon will be born three times.

Third, the bride and groom pick up the brazier.

A brazier is symbolically set in front of the stage, and the bride and groom take it to the center of the stage. After walking through the brazier, they can worship heaven and earth and get married. The bride and groom kowtowed hand in hand for three times and said goodbye to each other. A kowtow: the poem is inspired by Hongyetian, getting married; Provoke again: Lantian planting jade as a medium, thanking the land for creating beauty; Three kowtows: husband and wife get married, thank you for the perfection of heaven and earth!

Fourth, choose the hijab.

The most exciting moment for the groom is the moment when he picks up the bride's cover. His heart is full of tension and excitement. The golden beam is bright and auspicious. From then on, husband and wife will never be separated.

Five, cheers.

Separate a gourd from the middle and drink the wine together, which means that a business will last forever. At this time, the couple will join hands, drink this glass of wine and keep their true feelings and true love in their hearts! After drinking a glass of wine, it indicates that the couple are in a good mood and love the sky from now on!

Sixth, newcomers are auspicious.

Use auspicious fruits born early to sow auspiciousness, happiness and happy time of life. They will sow eternal happiness together.

Seven, holding the bride into the bridal chamber

Now there is almost no such link as entering the bridal chamber, even if it is just a formality. The groom holds the beautiful bride into the bridal chamber, which means a brighter future. If the wedding banquet is held in a hotel, this link can be omitted+after the ceremony, the wedding banquet is toasted.
