A young couple in eastern China have gone viral on social media for skipping elaborate wedding traditions and instead holding simple nuptials, spending money only on banquets and cash gifts for their guests.
The bride, surnamed Zhu, is from Ningbo in Zhejiang province, while the groom, Wang, is from Taizhou, also in Zhejiang. The couple, both in their early 30s, held wedding celebrations in their respective hometowns in September, according to the Ningbo Evening News.
Rather than follow extravagant wedding traditions, the couple held what they called a “four no’s” wedding.
The four no’s were: no picking up the bride from her home, no fleet of luxury wedding cars, no hired master of ceremonies for the banquet, and no videographer to record the proceedings.
