While the wedding numbers shown are correct, there's some context needed to understand the situation: In 2013, there were 12.5 million women aged 25, the primary marriage age. In 2021, there were only 7.5 women aged 25. Since you need a woman to get married (at least in China), with fewer women, there will naturally be fewer weddings. Nothing much that can be done about that.

@kapmann500yearsago9 Well, it shows that when we look at China's demographic decline, we should be careful not to overinterpret. The low marriage numbers are only partly due to people being less inclined to get married, and more due to the fact that there are fewer people in the marriage pool. A quick look at the demographic pyramid of China can answer many questions.
