The incident, however, was reported to the police and bridegroom’s father Zhang was arrested the following day.
Zhang and Li were subsequently found guilty of organising a pornographic performance.
According to the county court, Zhang had hired Li’s troupe to perform at his son’s wedding at a price of 1,700 yuan (over $260).
While Zhang was sentenced to six months in prison with a one-year reprieve, Li was sentenced to five months of forced labour with an eight-month reprieve.
