Chinese wedding dignified and elegant, Western wedding romantic freedom, this may be the most direct distinction between the two kinds of wedding for most people, but if you really want to choose a wedding form for yourself, or need to consider the various characteristics and differences of the wedding from Western and Chinese, what kind of wedding you prefer or more suitable for?
Here are the main differences between Chinese wedding and Western wedding.
First, process differences
The most prominent primary difference between Chinese wedding and Western wedding is that the respective processes are not the same. In traditional Chinese weddings, the process of "before the wedding" and "wedding" in this week's ritual culture is strictly followed, including but not limited to the sedan chair ceremony, the brazier, the worship ceremony and so on, which are very familiar to everyone in movies and TV dramas.
The Western-style wedding process is relatively streamlined, after the wedding officially begins, the necessary process is the speech and the couple exchange rings and the bride throw flowers. There are not as many rules and rituals as Chinese weddings.
Two, layout differences
Chinese wedding reveres the traditional marriage culture, and integrates some decorations symbolizing the elements of love, creating a sense of modesty and solemnity to the whole scene.
The layout of the Western wedding is more free and romantic, in addition to the church wedding must comply with the necessary religious etiquette, other Western wedding whether indoor or outdoor, the choice of PROPS will be more personalized than the Chinese wedding, the color collocation also has more options.
Third, the new DRESS difference
One of the most intuitive differences between Chinese and Western weddings is the wedding dress of the couple, which we are certainly very familiar with, but most people should still stay in the Chinese traditional Phoenix crown Xipei and Western white wedding dress these two fundamental characteristics.
However, in the traditional marriage culture of China for thousands of years, there is really more than a wedding dress of scenic Xia Pei! The style of the wedding dress is also different according to the bride's figure, the wedding venue and even the weather.
