Answer 1

Chinese marriage is a ceremonial ritual within Chinese societies that involve a marriage established by pre-arrangement between families.Within Chinese culture,romantic love was allowed,and monogamy was the norm for most ordinary citizens.
Chinese marriage became a custom between 402-221 B.C.Despite China's long history and many different geographical areas,there are basically six rituals,generally known as the three letters (the request letter,the gift letter,and the wedding letter)and six etiquette (proposal,birth dates,bride price,wedding gifts,arranging the wedding,and wedding ceremony).
The wedding banquet is very important.Traditionally,the parents from both sides will decide a good day according to the lunar calender,and all relatives should attend the wedding banquet.During the wedding banquet,the bride is usually lead by an older relative in the husband's family to "recognize" relatives from the husband's side.
In ancient China,a rich man with high social status can have a wife and several concubines.The concubines have an inferior position compared to the wife.
