Bride price and gift money.
Bride price and gift money are two different concepts, which play different roles in marriage customs.

The bride price is the money given by the man to the woman when engaged, usually in a small amount, symbolizing the blessing to the marriage. The meaning of gift money is to show respect and gratitude to the woman's family, which is also a traditional custom.

Bridal gift is the money that the man gives to the woman's parents when they get married, usually in a large amount. The purpose of the bride price is mainly to express the man's gratitude to the woman's parents, and also to show the man's sincerity in marrying her. In some places, the bride price may also include providing other items needed for the wedding, such as furniture and household appliances.

Generally speaking, bride price and gift money are both part of marriage custom, and their significance lies in expressing respect and blessing for marriage, but there are obvious differences between them in amount, purpose and gift object.
