Here are the four taboos to avoid:<br \/><br \/>1. Avoid colours of mourning like black, grey or blue for the new bed linens.<br \/>2. No one should touch, sit or rest on the bed.<br \/>3. If the groom has to sleep on the matrimonial bed before the wedding, a young boy born in the year of the Dragon should accompany him, as it is believed to be bad luck to leave one side of the bed empty as it foretells the death of one party.<br \/>4. The bride should avoid lying on the bed before the wedding as it is believed to lead to poor health.<\/p><p>With these five essential need-to-knows, you&#8217;ll be well prepared for your An Chuang ceremony.
