Extended information:

The so-called marriage document, now called a marriage certificate, is a document entered into when people get married.

Chinese marriage certificates are said to have originated from the etiquette of the Zhou Dynasty. There are "three letters" required for marriage, namely the engagement letter for marriage proposal and the gift letter for wedding ceremony. The wedding letter for marrying the bride is the form of the marriage letter.

In the Tang Dynasty, the marriage book had a formal script and a separate paper. In the Song Dynasty, it was divided into a cursive script and a fixed script. It was not until the Qing Dynasty that the marriage book was called Shufengbi. What has changed is the name, but what remains unchanged is the solemn commitment to marriage.

The main text of the marriage certificate of the Republic of China, in addition to the testimony, contains the name, place of birth, and birth time of the man and woman, as well as the place and time of the wedding ceremony, and the names of the introducer, witness, and officiant. The certificate is stamped with a seal.

Judging from the information discovered so far, the marriage certificates from the Republic of China period are the most beautiful. Their exquisite paintings, delicate calligraphy, and romantic vows are all amazing.

Nowadays, marriage is decided by the parties themselves, and the marriage certificate has become a compact marriage certificate.
