2. Do Follow Gift-Giving Traditions For Chinese Weddings

Follow gift-giving traditions by presenting red envelopes (hongbao) with money for the newlyweds, symbolizing good fortune. Avoid giving gifts in sets of four due to the association with bad luck. By respecting these customs, you contribute to the auspiciousness of the occasion and show appreciation for Chinese cultural traditions.

3. Ignite the Firecrackers During Chinese Weddings

In Chinese tradition, encountering another wedding convoy en route is an act that is considered to bring “happiness to happiness”. People believe that this meeting can balance out each other’s blessings. Therefore, it is customary to resolve this situation by setting off firecrackers or having matchmakers exchange flowers. This ritual mirrors the cultural value placed on harmony and goodwill between couples, ensuring that both celebrations are brimming with joy and positive energy. Embracing such customs adds a unique and meaningful layer to the journey of two couples entering into marital bliss.

4. Don’t Give Sharp Objects as Gifts

Steer clear of presenting sharp objects, such as knives or scissors, as gifts, as they carry negative connotations of cutting ties and are considered inauspicious in Chinese culture. Instead, choose gifts that symbolize unity and longevity, reflecting positive wishes for the couple’s enduring and harmonious marriage. By being mindful of cultural symbolism, your gift choices contribute to the overall auspiciousness and goodwill surrounding the wedding celebration.

5. Don’t Wear Black to the Wedding

In Chinese culture, wearing black to a wedding is discouraged as it is associated with mourning and funerals, symbolizing inauspiciousness. Opt instead for festive and vibrant colors to mirror the joyous nature of the occasion. By respecting this cultural norm, you contribute to a positive and auspicious atmosphere, aligning your attire with the celebratory spirit of the union.
