The banquet is usually paid for by the female party, and not by the male party. The banquet held by the bride before her daughter's wedding, inviting her relatives and friends, so the cost is borne by the bride. But there is no specific rule on who will pay for the banquet. It is also possible for both men and women to jointly pay for the banquet, and both parties can reach a consensus through negotiation.
What are the requirements for a banquet outside the pavilion
1. Choose a day
Like the wedding ceremony, the pavilion banquet needs to be held on a good day, which means good things and is also a good wish for marriage.
2. Invitation letter
On the day of coming out, the female party is required to post "Double Happiness" on the front door, windows, and furniture of the house, representing good deeds in pairs and prosperity, which also contains the parents' concern and blessings for their daughter.
3. Respect customs
Marriage customs vary in different regions, so it is important to understand and respect the relevant customs before hosting a banquet. For example, in some places, it is believed that the bride cannot fan a fan on the day of leaving the house, otherwise it will have the meaning of separation; Some regions also believe that women cannot turn back when they step out of the government, as turning back would make their marriage unhappy.
