뜻
To enter into marriage.
문화적 배경
The 'Oczepiny' is a traditional Polish wedding rite where the bride's veil is removed, symbolizing her transition from a maiden to a married woman (mężatka). It is common for the bride to take the husband's surname, though more women are now choosing to keep their own or use a hyphenated name. The 'Poprawiny' is the second day of wedding celebrations. It's a more relaxed party for those who attended the main wedding. Bread and Salt (Chleb i Sól) is a traditional greeting for the newly married couple by their parents at the entrance of the reception.
