China traditional culture wedding planning

Are you still worried about the choice of Chinese and western styles when you decide the wedding ceremony?

When faced with the noisy and solemn opposition between Chinese and western weddings, will you regret that you can't solemnly read the oath with your lover in your own national way on the occasion of the gift of life?

If so, let us open a tunnel of culture and history for you and tell you about our own solemn wedding in China.

The original Chinese wedding ceremony included washing ceremony, toasting, tying hair and tassels. What matters is the loyalty of the couple and the manner of tying their hair, which is not considered as a joke.

At that time, the wedding was simple and clean, and there was no acrobatic folk custom like the bridal chamber. The husband and wife "ate and drank together in prison" and entered the bridal chamber hand in hand-this was a beautiful ceremony with Han characteristics; Wedding dresses are not bright red and green, and the bride and groom all wear dignified dark black dresses (dark black, the red color in black, according to the five elements is the most sacred color symbolizing heaven and earth).

The whole ceremony was quiet and solemn. There is a shocking power in the quiet and meticulous ceremony, which will witness the love vows belonging to our Chinese descendants.

The quiet and beautiful ceremony that began at dusk represents the pure, beautiful and great Han civilization and points directly at people's hearts.

Unfortunately, times have changed, just like our other civilizations. In the new era, our ancestors used to be solemn and solemn, and we lost the simple and beautiful wedding ceremony, leaving behind not only the bright red and green costumes, but also the noisy ceremony, which is a sigh of losing culture.

Today, you can re-choose this life gift that belongs to us in China. After digging and sorting out a large number of historical and cultural materials, combined with the characteristics of today's weddings, the Chinese wedding series was launched.

Hanfeng wedding, full of dresses, carries the pride and publicity endowed by Han civilization, and the blessings from ancestors will be shared with your lover in the sacred oath. The background decoration and ceremony design of the wedding inherited the original form of most Han wedding culture, so it was simple, simple and dignified. If we compare western weddings, perhaps only church weddings can match it.

(The wedding mentioned above and this wedding photo belong to the Hanfeng series. As mentioned above, can you see the sense of solemnity and sacredness in the wedding? )

Tang-style wedding, in the heyday of Tang Dynasty, showed our once luxury and boldness. The elegant atmosphere will create the fashion of the grand wedding of the Chinese nation for the couple.

During the Sui and Tang Dynasties in China, due to the rise of the Silk Road, the exchanges between China and other countries in the world at that time became increasingly frequent, and it was also all-inclusive in culture, which was reflected in the fact that the wedding ceremony maintained the characteristics of Chinese style and added a little elegance and luxury.

It is worth mentioning that tang style's wedding dress is more colorful than Han Feng's, especially for women. Our spindle culture in China is characterized by "one plate and one style", which is straight and square. On this basis, the Sui and Tang Dynasties combined "dynamic" and "gorgeous". During this period, our ancestors seemed to eat all the beautiful things they saw, and then merged together, releasing a kind of wild and overbearing brilliance. ...

The overall structure of men's dresses is relatively low-key, even worse than before Wei and Jin Dynasties, while the bride's style is becoming more and more overbearing. A wedding dress can use more than 7 or 8 colors, plus jewelry accessories. Women in the Tang Dynasty dressed themselves not to please men, but to surpass them. ...

The traditional wedding process in contemporary China is generally divided into the following six links: formal admission-marrying the bride-washing-getting married-tying the knot-thanking parents.

There is little difference between tang style and Hanfeng's wedding in technology. Therefore, links are generally selected according to the specific needs of newcomers.

Formal admission:

Newcomers enter the venue in formal attire handed down by the Chinese nation for 5,000 years. In the eyes of relatives and friends, maybe the gorgeous dresses they wear are very special and "different". However, please believe that at this time, what the newcomers are promoting is the pride and happiness of China people. Newcomers have inherited the civilization of their ancestors. At this moment of life gift, they will be protected by their ancestors in China. The majestic bells and drums and the greetings from Lang Lang's recitation of the Book of Songs are the best welcome for newcomers.

Kiss the child:

Wedding day, the couple, feel the deepest for their parents. Do parents have anything to say before the wedding? In a traditional wedding, the groom's father will pour wine to his son who is going to marry the bride. At present, men and women have the same role and status in the family. Therefore, parents of both parties will be arranged to take turns to deliver wine to the couple and entrust the couple with the responsibilities they should bear after marriage. At the same time, gifts will be given to new people, which is meaningful.

There are many pillars in Maolin, serving the country from the army, and talented people come forth in large numbers. Young people are determined to please women and join the team.

Worchen came to the table:

Show respect for the wedding of both parties with solemn preparations. At the same time, the audience will also feel the solemnity of our Chinese wedding from this meticulous discussion.

Married in the same prison:

After the newcomers are seated, the waiter will give them a short wine glass and spill the wine on it to show their gratitude to heaven and earth.

Blessed by heaven and earth, the husband and wife eat the same meat and drink a glass of Chinese wine, which symbolizes happiness and longevity from now on, and share joys and sorrows with * * * *. This is the most solemn and sacred part of the wedding, similar to the oath in western churches. It's just that our ancestors made a promise of love between a meal and a glass of wine with metaphor and courtesy.

Untie tassels and knots:

Today, when we convey the message of love in various ways, do we want to know more about how our ancestors decided to live together for a lifetime? Throw away the shackles imposed by later generations' ethics. Our ancestors have long accepted the form of free and romantic love, and the man will tie his sweetheart's hair with a red tassel. From then on, this woman will always keep her promise of love. After their solemn wedding ceremony, the husband will untie the red tassel and tie a strand of his hair together as a symbol and memorial of love forever. It can be understood as the wedding vows of traditional weddings in China.

Thank your parents:

When the big ceremony comes to an end, the newlyweds immersed in happiness will never forget their parents who raised themselves and created a happy and beautiful today for themselves. The newlyweds should thank their parents and let them share the wedding with happy event.

Finally, I wish the couple happiness and a beautiful wedding they love!
