There is no saying that the bride needs to be picked up by her mother-in-law when getting off the car after getting married. In some places, there is a rule of giving red envelopes when getting off the car. After the bride arrives at her mother-in-law's house, her mother-in-law needs to give a red envelope before getting off the car, which requires her mother-in-law to pick up her daughter-in-law. Under normal circumstances, the bride does not need a fixed person to pick her up when she gets off the bus. Generally, the person accompanying the bride helps her to get off the bus, which can be the bridesmaid, the bride's own sister or brother. It is also customary for the groom to carry the bride into the door when getting off the bus.
Common rules for brides getting off the car
1. During the process of marrying the bride to the new house, the groom should carry the bride into the car and out of the car.
2. The doors of the main wedding car are usually not opened by the groom or bride, but by the bridesmaids or groomsmen. The groom and bride can only get on and off the bus after the groomsmen and bridesmaids open the door.
3. When the lead car arrives at the wedding venue, the groomsman first gets off the car and goes from the back of the car to the left rear door to open the door for the groom. The groom then goes from the front of the car to the right rear door to open the door for the bride and carries her off the car. This is based on the feng shui consideration of 'left green dragon, right white tiger' and cannot be reversed.
Special rules for brides getting off the car
Giving the bride a red envelope when getting off the wedding car is a special custom. In some areas, after the bride's wedding car arrives at her husband's house, the mother-in-law or husband is required to give red envelopes for getting off the car. If the red envelope for getting off the car is not given, the bride may not get off the car.
