i think chinese wedding been changing over the time
for chinese anything to congratulate or celebrating ang pao will be given but not the amount just take as wishing to another person
but over the years, then ppl is care more about the amount due to chinese want "face" so they usually order expensive food with the restaurant and come up from couple hundread to thousand a table
some not so rich and wanted "faces" then will hope guest will give some amount to help out by ordering expensive food per table , of course not many can earn from wedding dinner by it self...
but chinese now tend to forgot the true meaning of wedding, of course i know some are very rich and dont accept ang pao but the case is less

QUOTE(hardreality @ Feb 6 2018, 10:53 AM) You should give according to what that friend is worth to you. I hate getting wedding invitations from people i barely know to attend a banquet of food i don't like and expects me to pay for their choice of food and possibly even sponsor their honeymoon. well as i say base on my current financial.... i gave RM80 that time i have no jobs and my bank left about RM2000 you expect me pay how much??

QUOTE(hardreality @ Feb 6 2018, 11:02 AM) I don't mind paying more if it's a good friend. Hi/Bye friends i won't pay rm80 even if I'm earning 20k. then you are rich forgot to tell you , i am not living with parent , lost job and also everything is supporting by that amount, rental, bills and food maybe you can try to experience it, how you survive couple month with no income and see how much you pay then also have bank loan debt This post has been edited by Amy09: Feb 6 2018, 11:08 AM
