Betrothal Gift Exchange (过大礼) is the day where the groom
(with his friends or matchmaker) delivers the betrothal gifts
 to the bride's family and often the items to be exchanged in a Chinese
Customary Wedding depend on the dialect group.
 
i didn't take the full photo cos i was quite pissed off with his "bff" that day!
totally no mood at all.. i will remember this forever.. thanks for being his "bff"

the cakes from Gin Thye Cake Maker

Apart from returning half the gifts the groom's family has given,
the bride's family will also present the bride's dowry (嫁妆),
which is mainly interior ornaments or daily necessities. This is also
an opportunity for the bride's family to display their love for their
daughter as well as their wealth.
