I am totally agreed with you on everything you mentioned!

I always think that it is your wedding, and you decided to "invite" people to your wedding dinner to celebrate for you and give you bessing. You are INVITING them and it is your own fxxking wedding, so please dont expect people to pay you back to cover the cost! If you want people to pay for the dinner, write clearly in your invitation card that the dinner is on their own cost!

Most of the Chinese even recorded how much ang pao money each guest paid, why the hell is that for? So if a guest pay you less, you going to pay them lesser next time? or totally unfriend that person? This is seriously so ridiculous.

this is what i hate about being a typical chinese everything revolves around money. i was having a hell load of stress during my wedding but i cant argue with my parents or my wife parents. my dad has to pay deposit of 50k. i dont have that much of money so i have to rely on him on the restaurant deposit. i didnt pick the restaurant so i dont have power to say anything. reason being i have already spent a lot on other things and to prepare for my wife pregnancy. i have to intentionally find people i dont wish to invite just to feel my dad's ego cause he invited like 50 tables and give my wife and i 35 tables to fill. thats like 350 ppl leh and this is only the issue with my dad. with her dad also got issue also revolve around money. so i learn my lesson the hard way, plan the wedding yourself minimize your family or her family help. if u dont have money just do a vacay wedding and invite your close friends. no need to show off in the end of the day nobody cares
