Why did Ye Mingzi choose to hold the wedding in the Imperial Temple, and what kind of grand scene did this wedding have?
All statements in this article are based on reliable information, and the sources are detailed at the end of the article
Weddings like no other
In 2009, a couple entered the palace of marriage in the Forbidden City, it is unbelievable to hear that the Forbidden City can hold a wedding, as a famous building in ancient China, the Forbidden City has a high status in the hearts of Chinese, so some netizens feel that holding a wedding here is a kind of damage to national cultural relics.
But in fact, the Taimiao Hall in the Forbidden City can be used to hold weddings, and the official of the Forbidden City has issued a corresponding statement, and they are not the first couple to hold a wedding here, but it is not easy to hold a wedding in the Forbidden City, and it has to go through layers of approval.
And also to make a very detailed activity plan, all the content of the event and the number of participants in the event, must be in strict accordance with the official regulations, there can be no slightest transgression, not only that, but also have enough funds to support, after all, such a wedding is held, the cost is not small.
Because of all kinds of restrictions, there are very few people who can hold weddings in the Forbidden City, and this wedding has become a high-profile existence, it is said that the bride has made a lot of preparations for this wedding, and the wedding dress alone has been designed 9 sets, and finally chose this set.
The Cartier jewelry worn is even more valuable, and the people who attended the wedding are also local figures, red roses, white wedding dresses, and antique buildings, this century wedding that integrates Chinese and Western elements is really eye-opening and has become the envy of everyone.
What is the origin of the wedding couple, not only can the wedding be held in the Forbidden City, but the wedding will be held so grandly.
Granddaughter of the Founding Fathers
The groom of the wedding is a foreigner, working as a fundraiser in a listed company in the United States, and has a master's degree from Cornell University, majoring in business administration, and from the photos, he looks good, it can be said that he is good-looking, talented and golden, but compared with the identity of the bride, he is slightly inferior.
The bride's name is Ye Mingzi, seeing this you may have questions, who is Ye Mingzi? is it famous? I don't know if she doesn't matter, you must know that his grandfather Ye Jianying, as one of the founding fathers of New China, has a very high status in the hearts of the Chinese, after all, without them, there would be no good life we have now.
Ye Mingzi's family background can be said to be very prominent, and both uncles work in the central government, but her father did not choose to enter politics, but chose to do business, and there are also many achievements at present, Ye Mingzi is simply a princess with a "golden spoon", but Ye Mingzi only has a princess life, but there is no "princess disease".
Ye Mingzi lived with her grandfather when she was a child, and she didn't return to her parents until she was seven years old, because the place where she lived was relatively quiet, Ye Mingzi didn't have friends of the same age to play with, she often stayed with her grandfather, and her grandfather loved her very much, and even her grandfather personally helped her choose her name.
But pampering does not mean indulgence, for some issues of principle, grandpa is still strict with her, so Ye Mingzi did not become a stubborn second generation official, under the influence of grandpa, she became an independent woman who is knowledgeable, has her own pursuit and perseverance.
Maybe it's to let her know a lot, Ye Jianying often takes her with her when she goes out, but Ye Jianying takes a special plane every time she goes out, and there is no problem of extravagance and waste, just because his identity is special, but this has caused an illusion for Ye Mingzi.
She thought that all planes were like this, and could only seat a few people, until she took a normal plane, she knew that the plane was not the same as she had seen before, but could seat many people, and after the age of 7, she left her grandfather and went to live in Hong Kong with her parents.
An unexpected dream
In the minds of ordinary people, Ye Mingzi will either be in politics like her grandfather and uncle in the future, or she will be in business like her father, after all, she grew up in such a family environment, but surprisingly, she became a designer, and the wedding dress she wore at her wedding was designed by herself.
However, it is not without reason that she took this path, after she followed her parents to Hong Kong, she was exposed to different ideas and became more open-minded, and her parents were also more open-minded and supportive of her behavior.
If the child dyes his hair in a very bright color, he will be more or less blamed by his parents, but Ye Mingzi has not encountered such a situation, once she dyed her hair purple, not only was she not blamed, but she was praised by her mother, you must know that it was decades ago.
However, this is also related to her mother's profession, her mother used to be a painter and has a unique view of beautiful things, Ye Mingzi will eventually become a designer, it is because of the pursuit of beauty under the influence of her mother, that she embarked on the road of art.
In order to enter his favorite "St. Martin's Academy of Arts", Ye Mingzi has made great efforts, because the acceptance rate of this school is very low, and he doesn't look at anything else, only looks at strength, no one cares who your grandson or daughter is, and if you don't have strength, you don't have to talk about it.
However, Ye Mingzi finally relied on her own strength and successfully entered this school, when she first entered the school, she was not adaptable, the teachers here are very demanding, once they fail to meet their requirements, they will be blamed, but for the sake of their dreams, Ye Mingzi still persevered.
After completing her studies, she opened a studio, mainly doing high-end clothing customization, her goal is to make all the girls who love beauty can wear beautiful clothes, in order to design clothes that customers like, she will spend a lot of time to understand the thoughts and preferences of customers.
Ye Mingzi's achievements are not only in costume design, she is also quite accomplished in singing, and has also recorded records, but her favorite is always design, singing is just another way she tried on the road of art, when she found that singing has become a mass production job, she decisively chose to give up.
Ye Mingzi's experience tells us that hard work is essential on the road to success, and the second is to have perseverance, not to be easily defeated by difficulties, to learn to face difficulties, and to solve difficulties with their own practical actions.
