It is a tradition for the bride and the groom to have "a hair combing ceremony" on the eve of their wedding day in their own respective parent's home at the same time, normally hair combing ceremony is done by the respective parent.
Before the ceremony starts, preparations have to be made with "well wishes" stuff as shown in the photo, "Tang Yuen" plays a very important role in the ceremony, to be swallowed whole without bitting, is a believe that the newly weds will stick together forever just like the Tang Yuen sticking together in the stomach.
l did the hair combing ceremony for my daughter, 3 well wishes must be said as l comb, after combing the bride will swallow the Tang Yuen, angpow is given to the bride for a happy marriage and the hair combing ceremony is done.
