Question

What is a red envelope? (Bao Lì Xì)

Answer

In Vietnamese tradition, the gifting of red envelopes is a way to symbolically wish happiness, luck, and prosperity to the couple. The color red is a symbol of luck. Red envelopes usually contain cash or checks. During dinner service, the bride and groom greet each table to thank them for coming and collect gifts in a custom called chào bàn. Usually, each table selects a representative to give a quick congratulatory toast to the bride and groom.
