Wedding Package - $15k - 35k
Wedding Rings - $5k - 15k
Honeymoon - $500 - 10k
House Downpayment - $30k - 60k
Car downpayment - $5k - $15k
Furniture & Renovation - $2k - $10k
Depends on how cheapo or lavish u are la, give or take.
Angbaos can probably claim around 5k - 15k. (More if you have grand scale)
Advice u to get more tables for cheaper rates, buy in bulk will get more discount. More people = More angbaos, Ppl dont go to wedding to eat the mediocre food anyway.
If possible, have buffet dinner a few days before for all ur acquiantances and super distant relatives, give them a chance to give u money.

Rings cannot save wor, its the symbol of union.
Its eternal, I'll splurge on rings. -
Wah like that must save near 100k...
Hmmm... been spending too much on gf I guess, if not should have saved quite a bit =D
Suppose I save 1.5k a mth, to reach 90k, that needs 60 mths = 5 yrs! -

It is so nice of you to do that!Originally posted by LordIcarus:i agree with that. so thats why i'm saving to get my future wife a tiff & co diamond ring!
Yes, I think ring is the most important! The wedding dinner is just a waste of time and such a show. -
Becareful of spending too much on the wedding. Its a real world out there.
Wedding is only a small part to Family Union. There is a whole lot of other stuff for 2 person to come together. Grand wedding is of course welcome, but should not become a stress to the couple. I have seen just too many couple split after 1~3 years into their marriage. Major all releated to $ issues.
Do you want to save for 5 years & split after 1~3 years? Re-consider if you are stressed to save up for that grand wedding!
Just a little information, myself spend ~22k for the wedding. Hong Bao cover most of the Wedding banquet. Highly depends on your guest. I even receive 1 stupid Hong Bao of $8. Belive it or not, you can forget this type of friend. Also receive 2x $1000 Hong Bao. I recommend you have relatives open the Hong Bao on the spot while to register the guest names & amount collected. Be it $8 or $800. -
I heard of this before...Originally posted by surfer188:I recommend you have relatives open the Hong Bao on the spot while to register the guest names & amount collected. Be it $8 or $800.
And I heard of people who opened Hong Bao after they go home to find that all that is inside is a piece of white paper...
White Paper = Bai Zhi (白纸
= Bai Chi (白吃 -
