Is there anything special about the wedding?

Question 1: What should the bride's family pay attention to? This is a marriage custom. When the daughter got married, the family invited two men to accompany her to her husband's house, commonly known as seeing her off. Generally, it is the uncle, uncle or cousin of the married person. After giving him away, he can't enter the house until someone picks him up. When eating, two tables are usually shared, and the man sends someone to accompany the banquet. Generally, people who send their relatives away drink less and eat less. After eating, they told their wives to leave. After seeing off the bride, the man's guests continued the wedding reception. The elder who saw the bride off is an important role. He represents the authority and dignity of the bride's family. The woman is very particular about who to send the bride. Under normal circumstances, the woman's immediate uncle is responsible. If there is no immediate uncle, find the closest elder. But not everyone can see the bride off. This person should be dignified, generous, authoritative and able to hold the shelf. However, if the woman does have a close relative and uncle, no matter how vulgar the person looks and how obscene the behavior is, she must come forward to see him off, otherwise she will be laughed at and hold her head up all her life. And this kind of person has to go through short-term training and teach him all kinds of rules until he knows them by heart. Really can hold up the table on the day of appearance. When you see the bride off, be sure to bring the meat from your mother. Usually, the day before the wedding, the man will give the woman a bag of noodles and a piece of seven ribs, wrap the meat in red paper, and then take two bottles of red wine and a celery. Noodles come from the mother, and meat comes from the mother, which means that the bride has to leave her mother and set up another door. When sending the bride, the woman will cut the meat and bring back the pork with three ribs to the man. At the same time, find an empty bottle with mung beans and an onion in it. Bringing the meat back from the mother means that although the daughter is married, half of the daughter is still at the mother's house and cannot be separated. It's called "ribs never leave the body" Mung beans can give birth to bean sprouts, which means telling my in-laws that my daughter can give birth. This is called "after taking root." The farewell party will walk behind the bride's sedan chair and dress generously and appropriately. Nowadays, with the progress of society, married people usually have to prepare several cars for singles who are seeing them off. When the groom's house is near, the farewell stops, because the farewell has to wait for the man to send someone to pick it up. Such a noble person naturally can't walk to the man's house by himself. And men usually wait around early. As soon as the farewell party arrived, someone set off firecrackers to tell the man's family that the farewell party had arrived. However, the man did not take the farewell party to his own home, but to his neighbor's house not far from his home. Because after the bride gets off the sedan chair or gets off the bus, the younger siblings of the man will laugh, and the farewell party is not interested in watching others laugh at the bride. In addition, the door to send the bride is also exquisite. Guests attending the wedding should stand on the left side of the door and hold out their hands to make a gesture of coming in. If someone happens to be on the right side of the door at this time, the farewell party will never enter, because it is called "black dog drilling crotch" The farewell guests are welcomed to sit down at the square table, and the accompanying guests will keep spreading cigarettes and saying compliments, for fear that something inappropriate will ruin the happy event. Of course, this kind of escort is also exquisite. They are all prominent figures in the man's family, with outstanding clothes and extraordinary conversation. This also represents the dignity of the man's family.
