What is the legal age for men and women to get married?

The age of marriage should not be earlier than 22 for men and 20 for women.

The natural and social attributes of marriage require that you get married at a certain age, so that you can have suitable physical and psychological conditions, fulfill the obligations of husband and wife, and assume the responsibilities of family and society.

Therefore, although our country's laws give every citizen the right to get married, not all citizens can become the main body of marriage legal relationship, and only those who have reached the legal age of marriage can enjoy the right to get married. The legal age of marriage in China is not earlier than 22 for men and 20 for women.

1, the traditional marriage customs of the Han nationality

Han ancestors thought dusk was auspicious, so they would get married at dusk, so the etiquette of combining husband and wife was called "faint ceremony", which later evolved into a wedding. Han people think red is a symbol of good luck, so traditional wedding customs always use big red to set off a festive and warm atmosphere. Auspicious, blessing and filial piety have become the main theme of the wedding, and almost every etiquette in the wedding is permeated with the philosophy of China people.

When a young Bai man proposes to a girl, the girl will give Baba to the man if she agrees. At the wedding, the bride will go to the kitchen to make "fish soup"; On the first Mid-Autumn Festival after marriage, the bride will make a big cake to show off her cooking skills. Tea should be served at the wedding, and then four or four seats should be set (that is, four dishes, four plates, four pots and four bowls).
