Introduction to the customs of engagement

Engagement Custom 1: Family Sacrifice
The groom first performs a family memorial service at home, and then rides in a car with the matchmaker to the bride's home to marry her.
Engagement Customs 2: Tribute Official
Commonly known as "Mr. Yaxiang", he is specifically responsible for delivering gifts and engaging in marriage. The tribute officer must control the number of people (make it an even number), the number of vehicles (six or twelve), the betrothal money (an even number and properly wrapped in red paper), and the six gifts.
Engagement custom three: red envelope
Before departure, the tribute officer not only has to take care of the number of people, the number of cars, and the betrothal gifts, but also has to remind the groom to prepare more red envelopes. For example, the uncle who comes to open the door of the groom's car, the "table-holding person", and the six accompanying relatives all need to prepare gifts for meeting the bride, gifts from the bride's new friend who brings water for washing her face, and gifts from the matchmaker.
Engagement Custom 4: Engagement before commitment
“Eat rice and marry a good husband”, rice cakes should be one of the six rituals.
(Customs in different regions may also vary, and the specific ones need to be judged based on the actual situation)

Introduction to the details of the engagement date

(1) When choosing a date for engagement, the most auspicious date should be calculated based on the birth dates of both parties. This auspicious date must be a day suitable for holding a wedding according to the five elements. It should be noted that it cannot conflict with the zodiac signs of the man and woman.
(2) The auspicious date for engagement is mainly based on the bride’s date of birth, and then the birth dates of the groom and other people are taken into consideration. Try not to choose an engagement date on the same day as your parents’ birthday, but it is acceptable to choose an engagement date in the same month.
(3) When choosing an auspicious date for engagement, the day is more important than the month, and the month is more important than the year.
(4) When choosing an engagement date, it is generally advisable to respect the opinions of both parties’ parents. Engagement is a big deal and the elders will pay more attention to it, so it is best to discuss the engagement date with both parties’ parents before deciding.
(5) The date for engagement should be determined based on the actual circumstances of both families. The chosen date should also take into account that both sets of elders will have time to attend and witness the joyous occasion together. Therefore, it is also important to consider the physical conditions of both sets of elders.
