Is there a special hour when a Chinese couple should exchange vows?
A. Chinese tradition says that couples should marry on the half hour so that they begin their new life on an upswing — when the hands of the clock are moving up toward the top instead of down and away from it. As for which half hour you choose, well, that’s up to you! Another guideline to keep in mind is using even numbers in your wedding date and time (even numbers are considered lucky).
