The amount of wedding gift money is generally determined by the regional economic level and the economic situation of personal communication. At the same time, we should also refer to the relationship between them and the depth of communication. There is a saying of "yes-man" in China folk custom, so we should pay attention to even numbers and avoid odd numbers when giving gifts. For example, 6 means good luck, 8 means congratulations on getting rich, 9 means a long time, and the amounts of 300, 400 and 700 are relatively taboo. Usually, there will be a reception desk where the wedding is held. Generally, red envelopes and gifts will be sent to the reception desk, and a special person will register and sign in. Or give it to the groom when you meet a new person, to the groom when you are friends with the groom, and to the bride when you are friends with the bride.

The amount of gift money is not the only measure.

Marriage will not only receive blessings, but also gifts from relatives and friends. Is the number of gifts the only measure of intimacy? Of course not. Good gifts can't be measured by value. Replacing red envelopes with gifts can not only weaken and blur the digital concept of money, but also meet the actual needs of married couples. It is a precious emotional memorial close to life.

Remember not to "punch a swollen face and be fat"

Whether it is a gift or a gift, we should proceed from our own reality and do what we can. If the funds are temporarily closed, several people can get together to buy a gift. Or do it yourself, take some time and carefully prepare a small gift that is creative, thoughtful and memorable. Advocate reciprocity, focus on mind, oppose extravagance and waste, and show off as a gift. Don't turn a happy event into a sad event just because you are "slapping your face to be fat" or "embarrassed to pretend less".
