Matters needing attention in funeral package:

The amount of white gifts should be odd, and even gift packages should not be sealed. Singular means that bad things only happen once. If it is an even number, it means that it never rains but it pours, and it will offend the host family. Many people are used to sealing a gift package with big integers, which may inadvertently upset them. General funeral packages have a mantissa, and the mantissa is often 1, such as 50 1, 5 1 1 and so on.

Now some young people have no habit of writing envelopes. Generally, you buy ready-made business envelopes and send them directly as gifts. So some young people are prone to misuse envelopes, especially those who don't understand the world and manners. Once they catch one, it's easy to offend people. You can't use white bags for happy events. Ready-made bags on the market can only be used for good luck or white bags. Never use packaging such as congratulations on getting rich, double happiness and congratulations on getting rich.

White gift packages are usually sent anonymously, so just give them to the relevant ceremony staff. Some families have many relatives and friends, so they are often too busy to register for the ceremony and are likely to miss the gifts. Gifts are usually reciprocal. If you give a gift, but the host doesn't register, the host may blame you, so it's not easy to pay. So, in this case, you can also be named. The specific method is: the ready-made special package for white affairs does not need to be delivered, just write the name "XXX Jing" in the lower left corner of the front of the package; For the blank package without voice, write "To sleep with cows" vertically in the center of the front top and name it in the lower left corner.

When a funeral is held, the host's family receives a gift package. In many places, the custom is to return the gift, that is, to send a small gift package to the giver. This gift package is usually about one yuan, which symbolizes the good luck of the giver. The giver must accept this gift package and cannot refuse it. ?

The time of the funeral package is also particular. After the death of a loved one, the host family usually sends someone to send a funeral to relatives and friends. The white gift package is usually sent out by the messenger at the funeral for the messenger to collect. This messenger is often a part-time clerk. After receiving the gift package, he will register it in his personal notebook and then return the gift.

For the death of some relatives and friends, some people even send wreaths or couplets to the deceased because of special relationships. Generally, they also give the money to the messenger when he reports the funeral. Note that the amount of money and gift packages must be clearly stated to avoid making a fool of the messenger. Tokens don't need to go into the gift package.
