Wedding gift considerations 

What worries everyone the most is \"what to give\" and \"how much money is a gift.\"?? The most important thing to give a gift is to choose what you like. It is recommended to ask what kind of gift the other party wants, what needs to be added to the newlywed or new house, and then choose the right gift. 

The value of the gift depends on the depth of the relationship. Normal friends or colleagues can give gifts under HK,000, and closer family members or relatives can give gifts under HK,000. If you have been married first and have received gifts from each other, you can send gifts of the same value to each other. 

The gift-giving time is also important. Usually everyone will send it together on the day of the banquet, but this will increase the burden of the other party’s luggage, so it is recommended to give it to each other one week before the banquet or wedding day.

Wedding gifts/commissioning gifts taboos 

Marriage or joining a partnership is a happy day, and there are also some unlucky taboos. Try to avoid gifts that mean separation or breakage, such as:

 Mirror: the mirror is easy to break 

 Any sharp object like a knife: the meaning of one cut and two pieces

 Towel: A tribute used by the funeral family to thank the mourners

 Umbrella: the same sound as \"San\", meaning separation 

 Clocks and watches: has the meaning of \"send to the end\"
