[quote=BBQQ,263602]Why step over saddle and brazier? Stepping over the saddle and brazier mean that people hope the groom and bride will be safe and live happily in the future and that their days are as 'hot' as fire in the brazier. In Chinese, we say '希望他们日后平平安安,日子过的红红火火". Kevin has explained the symbolic meaning of peanuts. While in the bridal chamber, there are dates (枣), peanuts (花生), logans (桂圆) and pomegranates (石榴籽) that are placed on the plate. In Chinese, those four words have similar pronunciation with '早生贵子---枣,生,桂,籽.'[/quote]
