1.50s to 1970s. This is an era of gradual recovery from relative material shortage to productivity, and there is no real wedding ceremony. My grandfather and grandmother got married in the 1950s. I remember when I was a child, I often heard my grandmother say that she was taken home by her grandfather by bike, and then invited relatives and friends to have dinner at home, even if she was married. In the 1970s, when my parents got married, they were already able to drive to pick up relatives, and then set up more than a dozen tables in the unit canteen to entertain relatives and friends.
Second, from the 1980s to the late 1990s. After the reform and opening up, people's living standards have improved, especially the influence of foreign culture is gradually reflected in weddings. Weddings combining tradition and foreign countries, ancient and modern are everywhere. For example, from the initial exchange of rings in the 1980s to the kissing after the exchange of rings in the 1990s, it has to be said that the changes are quite big. At least this was unimaginable or even not allowed before.
Third, from the beginning of the new century to the present. After entering the 2 1 century, wedding ceremonies have developed to varying degrees. Various new technologies and new ideas were applied to the ceremony. For example, when I got married, my husband put the ring in a small flower basket hoisted by an aerial camera and flew onto the stage, which surprised the guests who came to watch the ceremony. Recently, it is more popular that the groom holds the veil in his hand and then flies directly over the bride's head.
But no matter how much the wedding ceremony has changed, I still envy the simple wedding of the older generation. Although the material conditions are difficult, the feelings are particularly deep. In the final analysis, the wedding ceremony is just a form of custom. Only holding your hand and growing old with your son is a happy marriage.
