Red packet for wedding couple

sharon1234:
it also depends on the venue. if you and hubby attend, then I think the red packet would be about $388 at Sentosa.Hi
I am out of touch with the market rate.
How much red packet would you give for wedding lunch at the \"one15 marina\"@sentosa cove?
It is a couple we know from church. -

Sorry to jump in here. I googled and found that the cost of wedding lunch is about $98 per person at one marina. So I guessed minimum $100 per person for the Ang Bao would be fine so that your church Friend won’t make a ‘loss’. :razz:

cool_hi:
yes, still need to give something, even if not attending. if dont want to give ang pow, then replace with a nice, meaningful wrapped up present, for the couple. Others give voucher. But cannot be empty handed.Just wondering,if it's relative's daughter get married,but our whole family cannot make it(not in s'pore), still need to give ang pao?

I never really understood the need to make a profit or break even at weddings. We planned a wedding six years ago fully expecting a loss, and that's OK. It was a privilege for us to have our friends and family take the time to attend our wedding, so if they chose to give $50 per couple of $300 per couple or even a toaster as a gift, it didn't really matter to us.

Totally agree. Weddings should be within one’s means, and I must say most of the weddings I have attended are aligned with the couple’s living standards. It is not the guests’ duty to help the couple “cover costs”.
Similarly, if not attending, should still give a red packet or wedding gift because it is a form of good wishes.
