As an ancient town, Zumiao Street in Chancheng District, Foshan City deeply explores Foshan's wedding customs and culture to enhance the influence and competitiveness of the "sweet industry".
On December 6th, it was learned that a group wedding ceremony in a traditional Lingnan style has received many applications from couples from various fields. After careful review, nine couples have been officially selected as the first group of participants for this group wedding.
On December 8th (the 26th day of the tenth Chinese lunar month), the group wedding will be held at Lingnan Tiandi in Foshan. The couples will set off from Foshan Ancient Town and embark on their journey to happiness!
The Chinese-style wedding with a predominantly red color shows an indescribable charm and joy, representing Chinese traditional culture by featuring harmony, respect, and etiquette, which are still important merits that modern people appreciate. At that time, the newly married couples will follow ancient rituals and, under the witness of relatives, friends, and citizens, experience an immersive Chinese-style romance.
During the event, newly married couples will take a "sweet" express to the wedding venue from Cha'an Station on the Guangfo Line to Zumiao Station and take a wedding car from Zumiao Road to the entrance of Zumiao. Afterwards, the wedding ceremony will be held at the Lingnan Tiandi "Wenhuili Marriage House".
The marriage house, located at No. 36 Wenhui Lane, Lingnan Tiandi, is a provincial cultural heritage relic in Guangdong. With a history of hundreds of years, every brick, tile, grass, and tree within it has witnessed countless sweet love stories. Since ancient times, it has been a "hotel" for people to hold weddings. Today, it is not only a cultural relic, but also the "most beautiful" marriage registration office and a popular tourist attraction where people can take photos for their marriage certificates.
Walking into the house, one can feel the ancient and festive atmosphere through the decorations like a delicate red lantern hanging at the front door and a couplet on the doorframe blessing the newly married couples. Inside the house, there are exquisite carvings in meticulous craftsmanship, luxurious decorations, and a neat and beautiful layout. Holding a wedding ceremony here would be very meaningful as a beautiful chapter for a sweet love story.
From December 1st to 10th, citizens can visit various Lingnan cultural landmarks, such as the Foshan Ancestral Temple, "Wenhuili Marriage House", and Longtang Poetry Society, to experience the sweet moments unique to the Foshan Ancient Town. Visitors also have a chance to win beverage gift packs, experience vouchers, cultural creative stickers, custom canvas bags, and other gifts.
