Chinese Wedding Ceremonies
Chinese Wedding Ceremonies: "Chinese Wedding Ceremonies
More than saying 'I Do', Chinese weddings involve going to parents' houses, playing jokes on the groom, and drinking lots of tea.
Chinese weddings are teeming with symbolic preparations quite different from Western wedding rituals. In emotion, though, they are exactly the same - beautiful, romantic, and funny. Here's how the Chinese tie the knot.

* Both the bride and the groom perform a hair-combing ceremony the night before the wedding, symbolizing the entrance into adulthood. The bride should perform the hair-combing under the gaze of the moon to bring her children. Both should comb their hair four times, each stroke bringing good luck:
