[quote=SUNNYDREAM,509847]Gaffer, In fact, almost all people sign their names on the red envelopes. If you attend at some Chinese weddings, you will notice that there is usually a desk somewhere. Someone sits there to collect red envelopes. He/she opens the red envelopes in public and writes down the guest’s name and how much money he/she puts in the red envelope on a red notebook. In the future, the couples check the notebook and return the red envelopes to them if they get married, have babies, move to new houses etc. Some couples even put a gong beside the desk. When the “clerk” receives red envelopes containing a lot of money (2000 RMB for example), he will sound the gong and speak out loudly “XXX, 2000 RMB.” Then the guests queuing up in line feel surprised and then open their red envelopes to put more money inside. Really interesting! The couple can receive more red envelopes with the help of the gong. What’s more, there are usually two red notebooks. One is for bride’s relatives and friends and the other is for the groom’s relatives and friends. If you are a friend of the groom, go and give your red envelope to the one who collects the red envelopes for the groom. If you are a friend of the bride, go and find the one who collects the red envelopes for the bride. Do you know what I do when I attend my friend’s weddings? If my male friends get married, I just give the red envelopes with my signature to him privately. If my female friends get married, I give it to her privately too. No one knows how much money I put inside the red envelope excluding the groom or bride. [/quote]
