Also, we stick a big red word"Xi" (often a double-write one) right on the back wall of the bed as a nice wish, too Differ from the red one, western culture choo white more. White wedding dress with a veil on the head and a bind of flower in the bride's hand. Equally, the bridegroom often wear as western-style suit in the similar tone with the bride. This is becau the color white refers to festivity in the old Rome times.In 1850 to 1900, white reprents fortune, elegant and loyalty.

Weddings performed during and immediately following the medieval era were often more than just a union between two people. They could be a union between two families, two business or even two countries. Many weddings were more a matter of politics tha
n love, particularly among the nobility and the higher social class. Brides were therefore expected to dress in a manner that cast their families in the most favorable light, for they won’t reprenting only themlves during the ceremony. Brides of an elevated social standing often wore rich colors and expensive fabrics. It was common to e such brides wearing bold colors and layers of furs, velvet and silk. Brides of a lower social standing often copied the elegant styles of wealthier brides as best they could.
