Along with China's reform and opening up, many youngsters nowadays are biased toward the western-style wedding ceremonies. White viewed as the symbol of purity, the bride wears a white wedding dress at the wedding ceremony. In Chinese traditional culture, however, white is the color frequently used at funerals. Therefore, please keep in mind that white flowers should never be given to patients as a gift to wish them a good recovery, especially to the old ones or those who are critically ill. Similarly, gift money should be put in small red packets rather than white ones.
