Their white wedding banquet is now under the control of the village wedding Committee, and both tobacco and alcohol are in charge, about 10-20 cigarettes, less than 50 drinks. The price of food is controlled by the hotel, which fluctuates a little, about 500-800, which is basically within the acceptable range. It is not allowed to raise the standard of hosting a white wedding banquet at will. The wedding banquet is much more free. Depending on the family's economic situation and the owner's wishes, the food consumed is 800- 1500, and a bottle of white wine is 100-400. There are also great differences between cigarettes from Xiao Su, Jiangsu, hard porcelain and soft porcelain. Generally, families have dishes above 1000, and about 200 liquor and red wine are not very particular about grade, not to mention beer. It's good to smoke in Dasu.
They don't talk about ostentation and extravagance, and they don't waste it because there is too much money to waste. The total amount of cigarettes, wine and tables is only equivalent to the lowest level of Shandong people, but Hunan people love face very much. Some people give red envelopes to guests and everyone on the wooden table when they receive gifts. There are more than 300 large families, even small families have to give back more than 100 gifts as long as they hold banquets. This is their custom here!
Different places in Shandong Province pay different attention to wine, cigarettes and dishes at wedding banquets. In my hometown, in recent years, many young people do not prepare cigarettes for their guests when they get married. On the contrary, they get some other kinds of small gifts, which are particularly popular.
