give twenty dollars and write your friend's name.More than the guy next to you
also depend on the venue,
hotel, higher
restaurant, lower
base on the table cost, divided by 10, top up a little.
friend friend don't need to ask.For me, it depends on how close I am to the couple.
and who is going to write your name on their's? if no one, then you paid $20 extra for your friend [and your firend (the bride/bridegroom) will appreciate your friend]; and they would think that you just ate a "free" meal! in any way, you got a free meal, but a bad reputation. and if you plan to get a bad reputation, might as well don't give and have a free meal!give twenty dollars and write your friend's name.
Sign a blank cheque and put into the ang bao.:devil:
$100 would be a good figure.
Once heard a colleague got a $14 red packet from another colleague when the dinner reception was in Le Merdien in Orchard Rd this year!
Now all of us knows how much to give to that colleague when it's her own turn. HeHe!
