Most people buy two wedding suitcases, one large and one small. Generally, 26 inch and 20 inch suitcases are more suitable. The big wedding suitcase can hold a lot of dowry items, while the small one can be used in daily life. The parents of the bride who is getting married should buy a suitcase for their daughter, which is one of the dowry items. The suitcase must be red, symbolizing a happy and prosperous married life.
What's in the wedding suitcase
1. Daily necessities
The items needed in daily life, such as combs, toothbrushes, toothpaste, mirrors, slippers, towels, etc., should ideally be in even numbers, symbolizing pairs and good deeds.
2. Box money
Also known as personal money. Before their daughter gets married, parents will put some money in the corners or center of the box for her emergency use in the future, hoping that her married life can be prosperous and happy.
3. Jewelry and ACCESSORIES
The bride's family will purchase some valuable jewelry to give to the bride, or give the heirloom bracelets, necklaces, etc. to the daughter, wishing her daughter to be accompanied by beautiful things after marriage.
4. New clothes
The bride also needs to bring the wedding DRESS, close fitting clothing, daily clothes, etc. in the box, preferably all new, symbolizing the beginning of a new life.
5. Bedding and bedding
Two sets of red bedding, including sheets, pillowcases, and quilts, should also be placed in the dowry box. The quilt sounds like "lifetime", symbolizing that the newlyweds can live a happy and fulfilling life.
6. Sugar jar
Purchase a pair of sugar jars and put some candies and snacks inside, symbolizing blessings for the newlyweds' sweet life after marriage.
