wedding gift money
Giving $20 as wedding gift is too little, but $40 is too much
Typically, people give newlyweds VND500,000 (US$20) as a wedding gift, but I worry that amount doesn’t match the banquet’s value, while a VND1 million gift is out of my budget.
Wedding costs $5.9K but cash gifts only amount to $2.8K
Wedding incurred a loss as family of 4 gave only $40 as gift
Wedding, funeral gift money costs more than monthly food expenses
My uncle, 80, has to skim on eating and work constantly in the fields to afford the gift money that is customarily expected at local funerals and weddings.
