Wedding Ang Pow during CoVid?
#1

How much is the market rate now har?

My ex colleague invited to his wedding in he Fullerton Bay Hotel (The Clifford Pier) last week.

Only 5 per table and I give $350 ang pow since its a atas place. Too little or too much.

I check with the link below, I was about there  Big Grin

It means $700 for a couple to attend. 

If from an average  family with children and  seniors to fend for,  $700 gone just to be invited. 

For those  struggling average families,  best not to invite them and make lives difficult if you intend to  hold your reception at an atas venue. 

Be considerate and understanding  especially during this sickening Covid period.

Some people just want others to "sponsor " their own happiness. 

A very close  friend of mine very considerate. 
He didn't invite many of us when his daughter got married at Fullerton Hotel. He didn't want us to "破费"
Really BFF.

This is call cheapskate. If u don't want to pay $700, don't go.

You go makan the food and then give an angbao which is 10% of cost.

1. I have served the nation in a combat unit for 2.5 + 10 years. I had fulfilled my duty as a citizen, but has the country do it's part for me?
2. I don't know where the threat of CCP is, but I know the threat of CECA is already at my doorsteps
3. I had been called a CCP, JHK, Pinoy, but they never called me a CECA..

People like to show off and hold in atas place. And they expect guests to pay for it. When invited like kenna summon or pay fine. No choice one. Any brilliant idea how to reject the invite?

Do go don't need to pay if u turn him down the moment u received it. That is what RSVP is for right?

Bet u haven't get married. The couple will find someone else to invite if you turn them down early. If u only tell them u not going on day of wedding, then you are the problem.

i knew why he invited me 
we are just mere colleagues not close do nt often meet
just to collect red packets to defray his marriage cost

sometimes u hv to be firm n not feel bad to reject
YR OWN INTEREST COMES 1ST
unless we know each other for many yrs often meet thta is a different story
