China flaglechi
Pay your money when you have been invited join a wedding by your friends-ridiculous Chinese tradion Maybe you got shock while reading the headline.But I have to tell you that's ture! Increasing number of Chinese people has same trouble like me. We are the people who steped into social or have been working for years even get marrige or real start a family. Almost everyone has this embarrassing moment in China, when you getting a message from social network or mobile phone text box:" Hi! I'm very glad to invited you come to our wedding next week. would you love to go? as soon an possible let me know." We usually feel being pressure or get annoyance.Because we know that your save money plan will be fail. I just think the message like a payment notice it means you have to pay 200RMB per person as wedding bottom line. Sounds ridiculous? I'm not kidding for it.You can ask any Chinese as long as he or she has the experience like that. Beautiful sence, moving vow, sincerely blessing just come out drama. In real life, only you to keep in your mind is this time you pay 200RMB when you get marrige you surely get it return even a little more. In my opinion,it's like a deal. I dont know the real sense in the game but many crazy people like play a part in it.To be honest, I hate the bad tradion. There is totally no sense in our life, I'd rather prefer to travel many place or think about much more fun ways to celebrate with your mr/Mrs right. I define a nature wedding should have done like this: your friends come to weding give you the best blessing with their handmade presents or creative stuffs. There are so many happy moments recored by digital camare for share with friends even if past many years. But one of my friend reply dont being naive. How does oversea people hold a wedding? Would you love to leave your comments? Thanks.

I was agree with you in a way,but I had to say the traditional is good to give your best regardst to your friend who was looking for her/his happiness.But now there are too many people like to comparison with each other,so we will find It's seem had to spend too much money when we have join weeding.Chinese are so like the face,so it has more and more crazy.I don't know we should feel pleasure or sad when our colleague has invited us to join their weeding who we just know her name or not even he will not in our company tomorrow .I think you are puzzled in these people too,right?Because I think we will not mind how much we have spend to give our best friends when they was to start a family.On the other hand if they are our best friends they will not mind how are we give them bless to give them some prensent or money. Anyway if you don't care other people's opinions on you,you can just to be yourself. Best Blessing
