Things to note when getting married

1. Please select the period. Asking for a date means the man chooses an auspicious date for the wedding and the matchmaker informs the woman's family to seek their opinions, which is equivalent to "setting a date" or "sending a date" in modern times. In ancient times, geese were used to invite people to a new year, while in later generations, various gifts were used. Most people choose even-month and even-days, such as February 2 and June 6.
2. In folk marriage customs, "engagement" usually focuses on the woman's customs, while "marriage" focuses on the man's customs. Nowadays, most of them are negotiated and agreed upon by both men and women. Specific details can be added or omitted according to actual needs or local customs.
3. Avoid choosing auspicious dates for weddings during the 39th month of the lunar calendar. It is best not to choose auspicious dates in the 3rd, 7th and 9th months of the lunar calendar, because these three months coincide with the "Qingming Festival", "Yulan Festival" and "Chonggong Festival" respectively, which are all traditional "Ghost Festivals" and are not suitable for holding weddings.
