Please note that giving a red envelope is only for individuals who are married. At least in Chinese tradition. So if you're 21 and single I would highly recommend another form of gift.

everybody should bring cash. period. cept teenagers and lil kids... of course, i'm not allowing those things at my reception so... ppl better bring 1) cash 2) checkbooks.

carton of cig. viet people loves to smoke.
If you were to go to a Korean wedding, please pack a dog because they'd love to eat the gifts right then and there.
Oh, I've heard they value the dog's brains the most, so don't take it out priorly.



I've never used a red envelope. Just put the $$ or check into a regular envelope and write you name on it. Red envelope? Blah!
