Requesting a date, also known as announcing a date or proposing a date, commonly referred to as choosing a date, is the fifth ritual of the six ancient wedding customs. After the groom is hired, he chooses a suitable date for marriage and writes a red letter with the words' Geng 'as an invitation to the bride's house, discussing the date of the wedding with the bride's master. If the woman agrees, the man will deliver candles, cannons, and other gifts to the woman's home. The woman will then distribute the gift cake to her relatives and friends and inform them of the return date.
What should I pay attention to when writing an invitation letter
1. Fold the red paper into eight rows, or cut a piece of red paper into a rectangle and fold it into six folds. The size of the paper depends on the number of written words, but generally the width and length cannot be less than 10 or 90 centimeters.

Example: It is scheduled to return on the fifth day of the eighth lunar month in the year of Wuxu (Friday, September 14th in the year of the Common Era).
3. Regardless of the age of the groom's parents, they should all be adDRESSed as' younger brother in law ', with double characters for each line, double characters for the entire text, and double characters for the entire text. The first line should be written with the word' double happiness'.
4. The entire text should be written from right to left, with neat fonts and a neat layout, without any typos or rewritten words.
5. Cover and bottom the "Wedding Invitation" and "Eternal Love" with separate folds.
