It is customary(习惯的) in China to give money in red packets known as Hong Bao as gifts to the newlyweds(新婚夫妇). But is it OK to give cash? What kind of gift do you give in your country?
Bill（UK）
In the UK, some newlyweds post their “would like” list on specialist sites on the Internet or at the store. Friends, family and other invited guests can then see the wish list. They will buy the things the newlyweds need. It is great that people will not buy two or three of the same gifts at the same time.
Milly (Italy)
Most people in Italy give cash at weddings. Very few people give actual gifts. People write a check, put it in a nice wedding card and give it to them on the wedding day. That’s how most people do it and how it was done at my wedding.
Wu Tian (Singapore)
Yes, that is the way we do on the wedding day. It is the same as Chinese traditional custom. Cash goes in to a red envelope. People write their names and their wishes on the envelope. So you will know which envelopes are from which relatives, or friends of yours. And the amount of money you give totally depends on how close you are.
