I found this video browsing YouTube. It appears to be a news cast telling of a couple performing a Han style wedding. I found this interesting because, one, it showed a few of the basic elements of a Han style wedding as well as the traditional dress of the time, but also that some Chinese couples still value these ancient traditions, and are keeping them alive in their own weddings. The traditions of a society can say a lot about their culture, and by keeping certain traditions alive, these couples are making sure certain aspects of the culture survive. (A.K.A. the beautiful ceromonialism and grace of the Han dynasty.)

Many countries use traditions of the past today in present culture. People like the weddings of the past from the Han dynasty. I respect that tradition is a big part of the Chinese way of life.
