What should the man prepare for the day?
The day is a kind of wedding custom in some places. It is a kind of etiquette in which the man goes to the woman’s house to inform the wedding date after the man determines the wedding date. I don’t know when this etiquette started. I only know that there has been this kind of folk custom since I was sensible. Before my two sisters got married, my brother gave days before marrying his daughter-in-law. The gift of giving days changes with society. First, the man has to bring a dish (that is, ten meat bowls), called “the seat to tell the ancestors”; firecrackers; one foot or two feet of red cloth (to the woman’s house to put on the shrine). Later it became Pig Pagoda wine. Later, in our marriage and love years, there were not many days to give. Slowly replaced by escalating betrothal gifts. It is not called giving days. Who do you think will let the man decide unilaterally on the date of marriage now? The two parties choose the date, bargain to determine the amount of the betrothal gift, and then they can hold the wedding with vigor. If you are still happy to send days in your location, come according to your local customs! It is not surprising that you communicate with the woman, and you enjoy it. You can send days as you like!
