I would like to ask for advice on the wedding customs in Yuanjiang, Hunan. I must be more detailed. I would like to thank all my friends.

There are some exquisite customs in engagement and marriage in Yuanjiang, Hunan, such as engagement: usually the parents of both men and women and relatives and friends have an engagement banquet together, and the man’s parents have to give the girl engagement money, a gold bracelet (gold bracelet) Bracelets), etc. The engagement fee depends on the financial conditions of the groom's family, usually 10,000, or 100,000 for wealthy ones. The boy has to give the girl 99 roses and propose to the girl in public.

Some people pay attention to the old tradition and there are six kinds of wedding gifts: six pounds of meat (one size fits all), six fish with lin, six bottles of wine, six pounds of sugar (six boxes are also acceptable) , six tied vermicelli (tied with red thread), six pounds of dim sum (six boxes are also acceptable).

For each of the above-mentioned betrothal gifts (except meat, as the saying goes, a girl is the flesh of her mother and is reluctant to give it to others), the girl's family will usually return some to the boy's family, two or four of each kind.

In addition, there are other things, such as an engagement ring, two red envelopes, two red belts, and at least two sets of clothes (as the saying goes, the mother-in-law's coat is passed down to old age). The woman's family should prepare a pair for the man. New shoes (called father-in-law's shoes).

When getting off the bus, the groom and the bride should get off from the same side, do not get off separately, otherwise it will be unlucky
