现代意义上的婚礼，也就是今天青年男女们所举行的婚礼，一般是指结婚典礼，也就是结婚当日所举行的仪式、程序、方式。古代意义上的婚礼则是指包括结婚仪式在内的，从议婚到订婚，直至结婚的全部过程的礼仪程序，无论是古代和现代，结婚当日的典礼无疑是婚礼最重要的内容。

婚礼的社会意义是什么？它具有哪些方面的作用和功能呢？

人类学家认为：婚礼是婚姻开始的社会方法。象结婚这种个人生活的重大场合，通过众多的人履行仪式而隆重地加以庆贺，这是早期社会的一个显著特点。

现在，随着社会的变化，婚礼的许多作用已被正式的社会组织，法律机构的注册登记所取代。在传统社会，婚礼的作用如同现代社会领取结婚证，以取得法律和社会的承认是一样的。

在人类社会的早期，特别是社会组织与专门机构不发达的情况下，举行有广泛见证的仪式是证明重大事件的唯一办法，这种习俗直到今天依然存在。结婚对于个人无疑是一大人生转折，婚礼是为男女双方举行的一种仪式，象征着俩人都已进入成年，标志着男女双方的关系有了重大转折，有了新的权利与义务，此后俩人之间的很多关系，如同居、性行为、子女等都将变成合法的。对于别人和社金来说，婚礼本身就是一桩公开和公众性的事务，亲朋好友参加公开举行的婚礼，表明社会对当事人婚姻合法性的承认，也表明社会赞同这一结合，亲属们和社会因此而接受新的角色和义务，同时也伴随着新的期望。

在中国的民俗文化传统中，婚礼的真正意义在于“别男女”。《大戴礼记•盛世篇》日：“凡淫乱生于男女无别，夫妻无义，婚礼享聘者，所以别男女，明夫妻之道也，故有淫乱之欲，则饰婚礼享聘也。”在儒家看来，家庭的基础在于夫妇，而夫妻关系的确立在于婚礼。婚礼即然是人伦之本，风教之始，所以必然要有庄重而严格的程序，严其男女之别，而后才可以使夫妻关系有一个稳固的基础。

正因为婚礼担负着如此重任，所以历代对于婚礼都十分重视，有载于典籍、行于民间的所谓六礼，这就是纳采、问名、纳吉、纳征、请期、亲迎，程序分明，极为隆重。但由于时间的流逝和各地民情不同，六礼所规定的基本程序虽然人们都还遵守着，但完全意义上的六礼已在民间逐渐变得不完整了。即便是在山西这样一块不大的范围内，六礼的具体风俗在各地都有一些不大不小的差异，人们把注意力较多地集中到了结婚当天的仪式上，其余的程序渐趋淡化。

Modern sense of the wedding, which is today, young men and women were held by the wedding, generally refers to marriage ceremony, which is held on their wedding ceremony, procedures and methods. Ancient sense, it refers to the wedding ceremony, including marriage, from engagement to marriage that, until the entire process of the marriage ritual procedures, both ancient and modern, on their wedding ceremony is the most important aspect of marriage.

Marriage is the social significance of what? What it is the role and function?

Anthropologists believe that: marriage is the beginning of social marriage methods. This marriage as the private lives of great occasions, by large numbers of people and a grand ceremony to celebrate them, this is a society early notable feature.

Now, with the changes in society, many of the wedding has been formally social organizations, legal institutions replaced by the registration. In traditional society, the role of marriage as a modern society for marriage certificates in order to obtain legal and social recognition is the same.

Early in the human society, particularly in the social organizations and specialized agencies of the circumstances of underdevelopment, held a ceremony witnessed by the broad events that is the only way that such practices still exist until today. Married individuals is a major turning point in life, marriage is for men and women of the two sides held a ceremony symbolizing the俩人have entered adulthood, the relationship between the two men and women marks a major turning point, but with the new rights and obligations, then the two among many, such as cohabitation, sex, children, and so on will become legal. For others, and social payments, the wedding itself is of an open and public affairs, family and friends attended the wedding ceremony held in public, the community that the parties recognize the legitimacy of the marriage, and that combined with this community, relatives and therefore accept the new social roles and obligations, but also with the new expectations.

In China's traditional folk culture, marriage is the true meaning of "other men and women." "Dai credited chapter • Spirit": "All men and women born in lascivious no other, husband and wife without justice, wedding enjoy employed, so other men and women, that the husband and wife, also, it is important to the lascivious, decorated recruits also enjoy wedding . "in the Confucian view, the foundation of the family is husband and wife, husband and wife relationship and the establishment of the wedding. Ran wedding that this is human relations, the beginning of the wind, it will certainly be a solemn and strict procedures and strict its Nannu:zhibie, and the husband-wife relationship before they can have a solid foundation.

It is precisely because of such a wedding shoulder heavy responsibility, history attached great importance to the wedding, contained in the book, to the so-called six civil ceremony, which is satisfied that the mining and asked the name Najib, satisfied that the levy, period, the pro-Ying, procedures clear, very grand. However, as time passes and different people around, at 6 under Although the basic procedures are in compliance with the people, but all sense of six civil ceremony has been gradually become integrity. Even in such a small Shanxi within six at the specific customs in some medium All the differences are more people to focus on the day to the marriage ceremony, the rest of the procedure is becoming watered down .

In modern significance wedding ceremony, is also the wedding ceremony which today youth men and women hold, generally refers to the wedding ceremony, is also the ceremony which, the procedure, the way the marriage holds the same day. Ancient times in the significance marriage etiquette was refers to including the nuptial ceremony, from discussed marries the engagement, until marriage complete process etiquette procedure, regardless of were the ancient times and the modern age, the marriage the same day's ceremony is the wedding ceremony most important content without doubt. what is the wedding ceremony's social meaning? Which aspect function does it have and the function?
The anthropologists thought: The wedding ceremony is the social method which the marriage starts. The marriage this kind of individual life's significant situation, fulfills the ceremony likely through the numerous people, but congratulated grandly, this is an early society's outstanding feature.
Now, along with society's change, wedding ceremony's many functions by the official Social organization, the legal organization's registration has been substituted. In the traditional society, wedding ceremony's function is similar to the modern society receives the marriage certificate, obtains legal and society's acknowledgment is the same
In human society's early time, specially the Social organization and in the Specialized agency not developed situation, the hold has the widespread testimony ceremony is the certificate big event's only means that this kind of custom still exists until today. The marriage regarding individual is without doubt a big life transition, the wedding ceremony is one kind of ceremony which holds for male and female both sides, symbolizes the pairs person to enter grown-up, symbolizes that the male and female both sides' relations had the significant transition, had the new right and the duty, hereafter pairs person of between many relations, will be similar to occupy, the sex act, the children and so on to turn legitimately. Regarding others and society the gold, the wedding ceremony is in itself a pile is public and public's business, the relatives and friends participate in the public hold the wedding ceremony, indicates the society to the litigant marriage valid acknowledgment, also indicated that the society approves of this union, the relatives and the society therefore accepts the new role and the duty, simultaneously is also following the new expectation.
In China's folk custom culture tradition, wedding ceremony's real sense lies in “other men and women”. "Big Dai Li Records Prosperous times" the date: “every was born promiscuously in the men and women does not have leaves, the husbands and wives do not have righteousness, the wedding ceremony enjoy hiring, also therefore other men and women, road of the bright husbands and wives, therefore has the promiscuous desire, then plays the part of the wedding ceremony to enjoy hires.”Looks like in the Confucianist, the family foundation lies in husbands and wives, but the husbands and wives relate the establishment lies in the wedding ceremony. The wedding ceremony is that as it may is foundation of the human relations, the wind teaches the beginning, must therefore have grave and the strict procedure inevitably, difference the strict its male and female, then only then may cause the husbands and wives to relate has a stable foundation
Because just the wedding ceremony is shouldering so the heavy responsibility, therefore all previous dynasties take seriously regarding the wedding ceremony, has carries in the ancient book, the line in the folk so-called six rites, this is the offering of presents to the parents of the bride and the request to marry, asked that the name, the divining an auspicious wedding day, the sending of the trousseau, the suggestion, receive the bride personally, the procedure is distinct, is extremely grand. But because time passing is different with the regional public sentiments, the six rites stipulated although the main routine the people are also observing, but in the complete significance's six rites already become gradually in the folk are incomplete. Even if in Shanxi this kind of not great scope, the six rites concrete custom has some not too big nor too small differences in each region, the people many focus the attention at the marriage same day's ceremony, other procedures tended to be the desalinations.
