Why do we hold a red umbrella at a wedding?

1. Holding a red umbrella at a wedding is meant to protect the bride from wind and rain and avoid being bothered by evil spirits, because there is a folk legend that the red umbrella brings good luck.
2. The umbrella gives a feeling of spreading outwards, which has the beautiful meaning of spreading out. When a bride gets married, it is natural that she hopes to have a baby soon.
3. The red umbrella replaces the red veil used in old weddings, so there is a saying of "holding a red umbrella". Red is a festive color, and an umbrella reflects a person’s rosy face, indicating health. A son is getting married, which means he is suitable for the family.
