Marriage custom in France

White is the main color of romantic French weddings. No matter the flowers, the bride's clothes or all the decorations are white, it can be seen that the marriage in the eyes of the French is pure and flawless.

At the wedding, the bride will prepare a cabinet called "weddingarmoire" as a dowry. The cabinet is engraved with exquisite and healthy patterns, also known as the "box of hope", and the cups used by the couple also have specific names.

French weddings are both traditional and casual. Generally speaking, the wedding is presided over by the mayor or his deputy. It is customary to get married on Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, from 9 am to 5 pm. Ordinary French people like to get married on weekends. This is convenient for more relatives and friends to come to watch the ceremony. Recently, the similarities and differences between French and Chinese wedding customs were discussed. There are obvious differences between traditional weddings in France and China.

The most striking difference is that in the traditional wedding process in China, it is usually the man who gives the bride price, while in France, it is just the opposite: no one talks about the bride price, but the bride should prepare enough dowry.

The change of French wedding concept.

In recent years, the average age of French youth getting married tends to be younger.

They are no longer emotional and worried, but more pragmatic and face real life. The bride is no longer influenced by habits and doesn't want to pass on her wedding dress to her daughter and granddaughter.

Future generations are so tall and big that they may not be able to wear this dress at all. And a wedding dress costs as much as a honeymoon or a small family.

Therefore, the new husband thinks it is a bit uneconomical to spend such a huge sum of money to buy a wedding dress in just a few hours.

Therefore, many brides pay attention to material benefits, and they rent their wedding dresses in specialized stores. They can also borrow dresses, tuxedos and evening gowns with the front hem cut back from the groom. Those who are more talented are skillfully connected with fashion shops. They can actually rent fashionable clothes, save money and use them as regular expenses.
