Betrothal Gift Ceremony/ 过大礼

Reflection
- Wedding luncheon banquet on the wedding day is quite tiring for both family members. However, we can rest early at the end of the day.
- Avoid listen to long distance relative’s advice last minute.
- Always stick to the original wedding plan to avoid confusion.
- Always be flexible for unexpected things or event.
- The most important things is just enjoy your big day. ^^
