Shawn and Rachel are not superstitious (Michael Scott: I'm not superstitious, but... I'm a little stitious). We believe prayer, faith in God, and hard work are what will lead to a successful marriage. Whether you give us $37, $88, or gasp! $44, we'll be fine (and grateful)! See below for more info on why certain numbers came to be preferred when giving gifts.
Red symbolises good fortune and happiness. It is not uncommon to leave some well wishes or a nice note on the back of the red packet for the couple.
Disclaimer: We're not superstitious and would be very grateful for your gift of any number! We're not talking about the amount, just the digits in that amount (if that makes any sense). Numbers play a big part in Chinese culture. Some are considered lucky and others unlucky: 6, 8 and 9 are auspicious and 4 is to be avoided. According to Chinese sayings, good things come in pairs; therefore odd numbers like 3, 5 and 7 are avoided at weddings. 6 六 (liù) is considered lucky because 六 (liù) sounds similar 流 (liú), which means "flow". There is also a popular idiom, 六六大顺 (liù liù dà shùn), which means things will go smoothly 8 八(ba)sounds like 发(fā) as in 发财 (fā cái) which means “wealth”, “fortune”, and “prosper”, which is why 8 is the luckiest number in Chinese culture. 9 九 (jiǔ) sounds like 久 (jiǔ), which means “long lasting” so 9 represents longevity. 4 四 (sì) is considered bad luck as it sounds similar the Chinese word for death 死 (sǐ).
