Wedding vase https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65DBP_QSlQA What is a Native American Wedding Vase? There are two parts to the vase, which each symbolize one half of the couple to be wed. In the middle is a handle, which joins these two parts just as a marriage does. So, the vase itself is inspired by the idea of joining two parts, which then become a single entity. 结婚水瓶仪式 什么是美洲原住民的结婚水瓶？水瓶口由两部分组成，每部分象征着即将结婚的夫妇的一半。中间有一个把手，就像婚姻一样将这两部分连接在一起。因此，这个水瓶本身灵感来自于将两个部分连接在一起，形成一个单一实体的概念。 而我国自古便有“共饮长江水”的伟大诗词，两种文化相隔万里，却有异曲同工之妙，不得不赞叹神奇的缘分将我们紧紧相连！

Blanket Ceremony https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y65Kcv2HRiI&t=5s The blanket ceremony is commonly practiced during Cherokee weddings. During this ceremony, the mothers of the couple will bring blue blankets and drape them over their children's shoulders. The blue blanket symbolizes the sorrow of their lives prior to their union in marriage. Later in the ceremony, either the officiant or close relatives of the couple will step forward carrying a white blanket. They will remove the blue blankets and then drape the large white blanket over the shoulders of the couple, symbolizing a covering over of their weaknesses and sorrows. The couple can enter their new life of marriage joined with peace and fulfillment. 毯子仪式是切罗基婚礼中的重要仪式。在这个仪式上，新娘和新郎的母亲会带来蓝色的毯子，并搭在新人的肩膀上。蓝色的毯子象征着他们在婚姻之前生活中的独自承担的悲伤。 仪式的后半段，不论是主持人还是新人的亲戚，会走上前来携带一条白色的毯子。他们会取下蓝色的毯子，然后将大白色毯子搭在新人的肩膀上，象征着覆盖他们的弱点和忧伤。新人可以进入他们婚姻中的新生活，心怀宁静与满足。

Jumping the broom Ceremony跳扫帚仪式

12:45 pm - 1:00 pm

Jumping the broom ( African Descendants Americas) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_8viErM3XDg It was believed that the practice came from the West African country of Ghana, where local brooms were believed to hold spiritual value and signified the sweeping away of evil spirits and past wrongs. Waving a broom over the heads of a couple while marrying was meant to ward off spirits. This practice is well attested as a marriage ceremony for slaves in the Southern United States in the 1840s and 1850s who were often not permitted to wed legally and changed to a jump over the broom. 跳扫帚（非裔美洲人） 人们相信这种习俗来自西非国家加纳，当地的扫帚被认为具有精神价值，象征着扫除邪灵和过去的错误。 结婚时，在新人头顶上挥舞扫帚，是为了辟邪。 这种做法在 1840 年代和 1850 年代美国南部奴隶的结婚仪式中得到了很好的证明，他们常常不被允许合法结婚，而改为跳过扫帚。
