What do you think of Guangdong wedding banquets that only tear a corner of the red envelope and do not accept gifts? First of all, this is a good fashion to change customs and traditions, which deserves to be strongly advocated and praised. The wedding banquet itself is a happy thing. I hope the host and guests are happy, especially the guests don't feel uncomfortable because of money. On the one hand, the family just wants to invite more relatives and friends to witness and make a big fuss to increase the atmosphere of starting salary. On the other hand, many invited guests are reluctant, and those who accept the invitation because of their feelings will certainly be unhappy if they have to pay. There is no charge, and both sides are happy.

Secondly, Cantonese people are very particular about the world, and the wind and water turn around. If the gift money is received, the host family will feel that they owe a friendship and will always be worried about it. If guests invite their host family to participate in any red or white activities in the future, the host family will have to reciprocate inappropriately. Gift books will increase misunderstandings and heavy gifts will increase the burden. If you don't accept the gift money, the main family doesn't have any psychological burden. Holding a wedding banquet is also a manifestation of economic strength. If you have money, you can do many things. Please invite more guests. If you have no money, you can invite three or five friends to celebrate together on the principle of thrift. Don't overspend in advance to add financial burden to a couple, and don't make excuses for holding a wedding banquet to collect money. Especially the upper and lower levels of officialdom or relatives and friends, breed a hotbed of corruption.

Not only do we hold a wedding reception in Shunde, Foshan, but other four districts, Nanhai, Chancheng, Sanshui and Gaoming, do not accept wedding gifts. I think that the practice of not accepting gifts is a cultural product of Foshan after the reform and opening up, and it is a rewriting of traditional customs and old gifts. The new practice of actively opening up and changing traditional concepts is very in line with the development of today's society and deserves praise and publicity. The bride price is a good excitement, but it will be bad if it deteriorates. These are my views on this issue. Do you agree with me?
