Hi Mama_Ina,

Feel that Hongbao is best.. To help defray cost of the dinner. :p

I received gifts during my wedding too. Those who gave gifts didn't give me a red packet. I was thankful for the gifts coz they look nice and I know they're expensive (some Precious Moments figurine) but at that point of time, I really wished they gave me a red packet instead of a gift. Coz I've to settle the bill right after the banquet!! Hehe!

for chinese most pple prefers AnG BAO~~~so its best to give ang bao, coz they use the $$ to pay for the cost of holding the dinner, immediately after that night.

if want to give gift instead of angbao, can BUT pls ask the couple what they need.. esp if they hav a new hm now, u can ask if they need anything lik oven, kettle, iron, tv etc... cos for me, if ppl wanna buy me gifts that i DONT need at all, i rather they give me a small angbao, give me 20bucks also better than they buy me the things i dont need... haha...

I think i agree with the other mummies, ang boa is the best unless u are very good fren of the couple, u can give them a gift n top of a red packet.
but a red packet is definitely most helpful :)
