Ganzhou is a mountainous area, and the Loess Plateau endows Ganzhou people with a strong and upright character and is famous for being generous to people and things. In the ancient customs of Ganzhou, marriage is the top priority in life. No matter whether the man or the woman is careless, the groom's family as a daughter-in-law should do their best to give a heavy dowry. In return, the woman will also bring a well-prepared dowry. But today's young people pay more attention to love and marriage together, and the ancient custom is just a solemn ceremony.

Many people's first impression of Ganzhou is intuitive, with high bride price, and they can even buy a house. Indeed, high bride price is one of the wedding customs in Ganzhou, but it is similar to other cities. The Chinese nation pays attention to reciprocity, not to mention such a life event as getting married and having children. However, with the gradual deepening of rational marriage, the news of high bride price has gradually decreased. Nowadays, marriage pays more attention to the ideas between new couples, and how much bride price to give is generally to sit down and talk slowly.

In Ganzhou, it is very important to go on a blind date before marriage. Generally speaking, when the young couple have a certain emotional foundation and both old people agree to this marriage, the parents of the man will choose a day with eight gifts, such as tobacco and alcohol, to propose to the woman's house, which is also called a blind date in the local area. This is not to let another old man watch his son, but to let the woman's parents see if they can become a qualified father-in-law after marriage.

In the process of blind date, if both parties have no clear objection, you can write down the wedding date, wine and bride price on a piece of red paper. Of course, this red paper needs to be taken by the man's parents, and the order should be arranged in turn. Here, I want to talk about it alone. There is also a saying in Ganzhou that the media is pulling optical fiber. If you have a matchmaker, you should give a red envelope of 2000-3000 yuan. If not, the money will be saved.

The wedding ceremony is similar to the surrounding area. The groom needs to knock on the door, give the best man a red envelope and be tested in front of the bride. When a series of tests pass, the groom can enjoy a mouthful of noodles. After eating, the groom will give the red envelope prepared in advance to the bride's brother, who will take the bride to the car instead of himself.

Although the wedding custom in Ganzhou is traditional, it has also made concessions for the times, because in the eyes of young people today, the wedding bears more love for the young couple and the ceremony is not so important.
