Don't waste money la. Wedding gift provided by the hotel is sufficient.
Say you have 300 guests x $3 = $900 down the drain. Worth it meh? |

There is alot of money to spend when u get married.
- Wedding tables cost about 1k per table nowadays. After angbaos likely to lose about 5k-10k and have to assume in laws do not keep ang baos for their own tables.
- Wedding studio photos+rental of gown about 5k
- House renovation + furnishings about 20K - 30K.
- Actual day photography about 1-2K
- Actual day videography about 1-2K
- Wedding band 3-4k
- Proposal ring 3-4k
- Catered food for wedding morning guests about 1K
All these paid in cold hard cash. It all adds up. If pay by credit, good luck. |

I've attended my cousins' and brother's weddings end of last year. Frankly, i have no recollection what were the wedding favors till I go back to read my blog.
A marriage is between him and her. Most who go to wedding dinners will eat and forget unless something really out of the ordinary happened... |

my colleagues and some friends actually get to earn from the angbao money.. i think it depends on the guests, how generous they are..
when i say memories i mean the wedding couple's memories.. nobody else will recall much about the wedding until they go back to check out the pictures taken..

It's more for rom whr ur guest list is minimal...most restaurants/ hotels dun provide for small orders...n usually they give mini salt/pepper shaker..if u provide ur own weddin favors, they might lower ur package price...

To reduce cost. You can opt for restaurant instead of hotel. Actual day video and photo can give it a miss. After married how often did you take out to see? If really want just take photo can ask your frenz to help. Nowadays everyone got digital camera and it's so convenient.

if u need to cut cost for your wedding, which will u do away first? Actual Day Wedding photos or Wedding favors?
