[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Asian style wedding style is to have the wedding local and everyone gives the bride and groom[b] $150 for singles and $300 for couples.[/b] Parents, brothers, sisters, and relatives give a lot more, like $3000 each. The bride and groom will be very profitable after the wedding. I had over 10K in profit after paying off the reception dinner. Same with my brothers and sisters wedding. [/quote] Same standards for a lot of European American (mix of immigrant, first and second generation) communities where I am from in NYC. Its a very "pay for your plate" mentality but we don't view it like an invoice as others have suggested. Its....just what you do. Just went to a wedding last week with my DH - $300 cash in the envelope. When I got married, my closer cousins gave more. [/quote]
