The first impression of France is nothing but romance. Therefore, French weddings are inevitably surrounded by a romantic atmosphere. Some people say that French is a language created by God to talk about love. I don’t think there will be any denying this. Because it is normal for the French to have sweet words on their lips. Especially for the women in their lives, French men spare no effort to pickle the women in their lives with sweet words, hoping that they will be sweet every day.
The average French wedding is a twelve–
hour marathon wedding ceremony and ordinary people cannot participate in it if they want. Because this kind of wedding etiquette requires extraordinary physical strength and alcohol, otherwise it will be looked down upon, so no matter how hard it is, you have to endure it. The wedding is divided into four parts: the mayor’s wedding, the church wedding, the cocktail party, and the official reception. The following will introduce the wedding procedures one by one, and tell you why the French wedding is called: the “Marathon Wedding“.
The mayor’s marriage witness is the first part:
it starts at about 3 o’clock in the afternoon. Although it is a simple notarization ceremony, the mayor must dress up and wear blue, white, and red French epaulets and ribbons, and solemnly serve the citizens to witness the marriage and sign the marriage certificate. At this time, the original The lively French are quiet and quiet, respecting the legal process. The French city government is very careful about the wedding etiquette of the newlyweds, although this day only needs to deal with the notarial wedding of the newlyweds. After that, we turned to the Catholic Church for the next ceremony.
Church wedding two–part: The
the religious ceremony is about an hour, the newlywed flower girl walks the red carpet to the altar, the priest prays, sings hymns, and declares that they become husband and wife. In fact, the notarial marriage in the city government just now has legal effect. The church allows the newlyweds to get married under the witness of God, which is another lifelong agreement. The church bell rang at the end of the ceremony when all the French people at the dinner and wedding came out and got into the car to attack the cocktail party. Every guest is very excited about the next climax show, gearing up to congratulate the newcomer and celebrate with a carnival.
Cocktail party trilogy:
All the guests will attend the cocktail party. At about 6 o’clock in the afternoon, the guests will line up to congratulate the newlyweds one by one and complete the kiss on the cheek. Then flock to the well–stocked beverage bar for champagne, ouzo, and spirits of all kinds; kids drink non–alcoholic beverages. Desserts were also stacked on the table, and relatives and friends kept eating the delicacies at the dinner party. The wines were also eliminated cup by cup during the chatting. After a lot of fun, it was time to attack the wedding banquet.
The Four Steps of the Wedding Banquet:
The beautiful French table setting, embellished with pink flowers and exquisite candlesticks, makes people feel full of joy. Everyone at the table is seated according to the nameplate, and there will be a small packet of exquisite candy in the center of the plate to be distributed to everyone. Then, as usual, he poured wine and chatted with the guests next to him. Around nine o’clock in the evening, the waiter served the first appetizer, and after a round of eating and drinking, the entertainment began. It may be a live band or a DJ. The French began to dance wildly, regardless of age, grandparents, parents, children, and children. The bride had to dance even though she was wearing white gauze. The second main course is not served until midnight. After another round of eating and drinking, a cheese plate is served, and dessert is served at two or three in the morning. Delicious cakes, pies, and ice creams are served with coffee or tea. Rush down your stomach for an early breakfast.
