We need two or four wedding dowry boxes. According to traditional Chinese wedding customs, it is best for all items on the day of the wedding to be in even numbers, symbolizing that the couple will be paired up and grow old together after marriage. If there are two dowry boxes, one box can be used to hold important belongings and the bride's clothes, and the other box can hold the bride's own money given by her parents.
Requirements for dowry boxes
1. Quantity: Two or four
Marriage is a great joy in life, so all items must be prepared in pairs, representing the meaning of good things coming in pairs. So it is recommended that everyone prepare two in quantity, and if there are many things, you can also prepare four, as long as you maintain even numbers.
2. Fashionable style
The wedding represents the grandeur and taste of the newlyweds, so every detail from top to bottom must be taken seriously. So it is recommended that brides choose boxes with more fashionable styles to represent their good taste.
3. Colors should be festive
The most common dowry boxes are usually red, representing the prosperity of the newlywed life. So in terms of color selection, it is advisable to prepare more festive colors. Black or other dark colors should not be chosen as they are not aesthetically pleasing and have a negative connotation.
