The marriage custom in Qing Dynasty refers to the marriage custom of people in Qing Dynasty in the history of China. In the Qing Dynasty, people all knew that people were wearing robes, jackets and crested robes, while ordinary people were wearing coarse clothes. So it is very grand for Qing people to marry nobles. Today, let's talk about the marriage customs of Qing nobles. I believe what everyone wants to know is what the wedding customs of the royal family were like in the Qing Dynasty. We should know that the wedding customs in China in the late Qing Dynasty were still in accordance with the rules of our ancestors. Let's talk about the wedding customs in the Qing Dynasty. People in the Qing Dynasty paid attention to three books and six gifts, including letters of appointment, gifts, welcoming relatives, accepting gifts, asking names, accepting gifts, inviting guests, and welcoming relatives. The letter of engagement, also known as the engagement letter, is a written proof that both men and women have formally entered into an engagement, and it will be used when Najib has passed the written agreement. The gift book is a list of the items of betrothal gifts, including the name and quantity of betrothal gifts, etc., which will be used when accepting gifts. The book of welcoming the bride is a book for marrying the bride, and it should be used when welcoming the bride to the door on the wedding day.

The following six points are summarized: 1. Take advantage. If a man likes a woman, he can ask a matchmaker to propose marriage. Two: Ask the name, the man asks the woman's name and birthdates to measure the word.

third: Najib, if asking for a name is a good omen, send the matchmaker to bring a small gift to the woman's home. Four: collecting money, giving gifts, cakes, gifts and betrothal gifts, etc. Five: please invite the man's family to ask the fortune teller to calculate the auspicious day to get married and go to the woman's family for instructions. Six: Kissing, the groom takes a limousine to the woman's home and greets the bride. It should be noted that a few days before the wedding, you must choose an auspicious day and ask the blessed person to move the new bed to a suitable location, and then the blessed person will be responsible for making the bed, paving the dragon and phoenix quilt and mattress, and sprinkling all kinds of happy fruits on the wedding bed, such as red dates, longan, dried litchi, red mung beans and red envelopes. No one is allowed to enter the new house and touch the new bed after the bed is installed, until the new couple enters the room on the wedding night.
