After that, groom is responsible take bride to the wedding ceremony. Additionally, when they on the way to wedding ceremony, groomsman need to set off firecracker. That's mean scare bad things away or quite their mind. Also, a last thing to do before go to ceremony is groom and bride have to bow to bride's parents. Because in traditional, after they get married, bride just Chinese New Year can go back her parents house. Finally, after the romantic weeding reception, groom and bride need to take candies and cigarettes standing in front of the door and show guests to the door. That's mean hope they can get a baby pretty soon, especially a boy!
Even though now is modern age, we can not forget our traditional customs. Whatever tradition or modern, no one is the best. Only faith, forgive and love can get a everlasting relationship.
It's interesting that red is considered a lucky colour in Chinese culture. I don't think you would see too much red at a Canadian wedding...we tend to consider it as something negative (like a 'stop sign').

First, the most important customs is on the wedding day; the groom and bride can not meet each other until many ceremonies are done.
