The steps to get married are complicated. When the man defines the woman, he usually sends a message to the other parents to make them psychologically prepared, and then presents them to propose marriage. After the woman promised, she took the wine and meat to get engaged. After that, I carried the pig to drink at the right time. When picking up relatives, you should carry a big fat pig and eat big wine. At this time, both men and women should invite at least two brothers and sisters or two brothers and sisters as a companion to receive relatives and send them off. When getting married, the bride wears an elegant collar, collar and bracelet, and walks in the front with a red paper umbrella with a special slit, to bid farewell to the accompanying men and women of relatives. After that, I lined up with suitcases, quilts and folded glutinous rice cakes. That night, the bridesmaid accompanied the bride, and the bride returned home the next day. It was not until an auspicious day that the bride was invited, and husband and wife life began. It is forbidden to thunder when getting married, so the wedding date is mostly arranged in autumn and winter.

The Shui nationality has several special wedding customs:

Bridal chamber duet: This is the custom of the Shui family, and it is forbidden for the bride to make trouble in the bridal chamber. But that night, the young singer of the man can ask the woman to sing with his mother. When singing, the male singer can only sing outside the bridal chamber, and the female singer sings in the bridal chamber, singing and answering. The songs you sing are all traditional ancient songs, so you can't make them up and sing them. The scene is serious and warm. After singing until midnight, the man arranged a banquet for the singer to eat supper, and the two sides sat opposite each other at the banquet and continued to sing.

Brother farewell: Aquarium girls must be accompanied by their own brothers or cousins when they go out. According to the custom, if the bride can't land when she leaves the gate, her brother will take an umbrella and carry her out of the house. Then go with mom. If you meet someone else's footprints on the way, your brother needs to carry the bride across the intersection. When he entered the man's house, there were two brothers, one carrying an umbrella and the other carrying the bride. This custom reflects the brotherhood of mutual concern between brothers and sisters and is unique to the Shui family.

Bride pays homage to the well and carries water to recognize relatives: the bride should pay homage to the well one or two days before she arrives at the man's house, which is the rule of the water family. Take time to ask a few girls to explore the well quietly, one is to know the location and distance of the well, and the other is to be mentally prepared to carry water and recognize relatives in a few days. In some areas, the bride must take two eggs and put them in the well when she goes to worship the well. If two eggs live alone, it means that the couple have a happy marriage. When the bride comes back through the door, she will fulfill the obligation of carrying water to recognize her relatives. Accompanied by the sister of the bride and groom, they sent a bucket of water to each uncle and brother's family to show their approval. This custom has been maintained to this day.
