Wedding taboo

Taboos for wedding gifts include: don't put unlucky items, don't put items with short shelf life, and it's not too late to give gifts.

1, don't put unlucky items.

Marriage is full of festive feelings, and the gifts you choose should also have auspicious meanings. Remember not to send anything with bad meaning. If you can't send a clock, the clock stands for "farewell" and is not suitable for wedding occasions; You can't send shoes, because some areas think that shoes are homophonic "evil" and have an ominous feeling. In addition, don't wrap fragile things, such as glasses and ceramic cups.

2. Don't put items with short shelf life.

If you want to put food in the gift, then you must pay attention to their shelf life. Never put anything near or with a short shelf life, or the guests will think you are careless.

It's not too late to give gifts.

Gifts are usually given when the couple toasts. It's best not to wait until all the processes are over, so as to avoid some guests leaving early and not receiving gifts.

Gift giver:

1, the best man and bridesmaid.

Gifts for bridesmaids and groomsmen should be carefully prepared, and there will be more items than ordinary gifts, such as cosmetics, aromatherapy and thermos cups. Because the best man and bridesmaid are busy with the couple on the wedding day, this is a thank-you gift for them.

2. Staff.

People who come to help at the wedding should also prepare gifts for them, such as drivers, wedding attendants, photographers, hosts and so on. Their gifts usually consist of other snacks such as candy and cigarettes, and considerate couples also put a small red envelope in the gift to show their gratitude.
