Dearest friends and family, we have been happily living together for years now and, therefore, have accumulated all the things we might need, so we ask for your presence, not presents. If you’d still like to celebrate us with a gift, we’re choosing to follow the Chinese and Vietnamese gifting tradition of hóngbāo 紅包, lì xì,” or lucky money to send blessings on our special day in addition to our married life. You can also contribute to some of our online funds and help support future goals and specific causes we are passionate about.”
