婚前准备和新婚礼品
男女结婚之前,往往好友都要来聚会。女青年们举行送礼会,其中以送厨房用品为最多。如送烹任参考书、水桶、咖啡壶、炒菜锅等。男青年们也为自己的朋友举行一次欢叙会,并且声言只许男人参加,女宾恕不招待。在会上,他们可以共送一件比较贵重的礼物给新郎,然后追忆少年时的好时光,互相惜别,并为新郎成家而庆贺,举杯碰盏,一醉方休。
欲向新婚夫妇送礼,应在接到婚礼请帖或在结婚日期公布后,便把礼物送去新娘家。礼物应用白纸包装,系上白绸带,附上自己的名片,还可以写上一句祝辞。所送礼品多属花瓶、瓷器、餐具、床毯等日常用品。在送给新娘的银器或织品上刻上新娘名字的第一个字母。也是很常见的做法。
如果严格按照习俗办理,婚前还要有一系列程序。先是举行订婚仪式,届时男女双方交换订婚戒指,把事前准备好的钻石戒指戴在对方的左手无名指上。这种风俗。可追溯到原始社会晚期。当时有些部落在举行婚礼时,男女双方要交换用花环,以保证灵魂的结合。今天交换戒指,则象征双方相互承担的义务和牢不可破的感情。订婚仪式后,就要为正式婚礼做准备,如印发请帖,展示结婚礼品并向送礼人表示感谢,两家会亲,宴请亲友,布置教堂,预备男女傧相的服装等等。一切准备就绪,婚礼的时刻便将来临了。 按照传统,婚礼之日,在走上教堂的圣坛之前,新郎新娘不能会面。婚礼之前,也不允许新郎看新娘的礼服。新娘须着雪白长裙,戴洁白面纱,以象征纯洁。同时,新娘穿戴的衣物中必须包括有新的、旧的、借来的和蓝色的四种东西。旧东西,可以是新娘母亲穿戴过的衣物,蓝色的东西通常则是蓝色的吊袜带。
