If you join a modern Chinese wedding ceremony, you will find some luxurious wedding cars. Why do they rent or hire wedding cars? The groom has to pick up his wife from her home. Of course he can’t go there and fetch here on foot. Therefore, a fleet of cars are rented. For ordinary weddings, BMW, Mercedes-Benz or Audi are frequently rented. For luxurious weddings, Porsche, Bugatti and other sports cars are used. Have you ever seen hearses hired for the wedding? A Taoist in Taiwan rents six hearses to pick up his wife. Actually his wife came up with this idea.

For me nothing depicts its true meaning, it's only mere interpretation by certain humans. A hearse is still a car that can be used as transport, black and white do not portray bad image. I am just trying to visualise the traditional Chinese thinking where they follow the traditional ancient culture. Wan

The people were angry with him but couldn't di anything because he rented the shop there too. As a Chinese he knew it's a taboo to sell coffin in the shopping complex. After much persuasions, he got paid by both the owner and other tenants. Wan
