曲二：礼仪文化——传统婚礼

一纸婚书，两姓之联。谨以白头为约，书向鸿笺。三绺梳头，两截穿衣。着黑色长衫与袄裙，凝重而庄严。礼是一种制度，更是一种道德规范。婚礼在中国古代被称作“昏礼”，所蕴含的意义不仅是合两姓之好，更是一个新的家庭，上以承传祖宗、父母的家道、家学、家业，下以继后世教导好子孙后代的责任。中国文化中的古礼经义，是契约精神的传承，也是文明的延续。

Part two: Ritual Culture - Traditional wedding

A paper marriage certificate is a symbol of a lifelong commitment, with the ceremony representing the joining of two surnames and the establishment of a new family. The bride goes through three hair combings and wearing of two sets of attire. Wearing a black long robe and skirt signifies solemnity and dignity. The ceremony is not just a system but also a moral standard. In ancient China, the wedding ceremony, known as "hun li," was not only about uniting two families, but also about a new family carrying on ancestral teachings, family traditions, and legacies from the previous generations, as well as the responsibility of educating and guiding future generations. The classical rituals in Chinese culture represent the spirit of commitment and the continuity of civilization.
