The bride normally wears a white kimono (和服) with a white scarf. The color symbolizes purity. The ceremony begins with ritual purification. Next prayers are offered for the couple to have good luck, happiness and the protection of the Kami (神道教的神). Then the couple drinks sake (清酒)—taking three sips each from three cups—and the groom reads words of commitment. The traditional wedding gown in China is bright red, symbolizing luck for the new couple. Chinese bridal gowns are traditionally decorated with golden phoenixes (凤凰) and peonies (牡丹), symbols of wealth and good fortune. And you can expect loud firecrackers at a Chinese wedding to scare off evil spirits.

The end of the bride’s sari (莎丽) is tied to her husband’s scarf to show that they are joined together. At the end of the wedding ceremony, the couple take seven steps around a sacred fire. As the couple walk around the sacred fire they say a prayer at each step. The groom and his family make offerings of barley (大麦) to the fire, and the guests and the priest bless the couple.
