With China’s reform and opening up, many young people tend to hold Western-style weddings these days. The bride wears a white wedding dress at the wedding, because white is considered as a symbol of purity. However, in traditional Chinese culture, white is often used in funerals, so be sure to remember that white flowers must not be used as a gift to the patient, especially not to the seniors or patients in critical conditions. Similarly, the cash gift cannot be packed in a white envelope, but in a red envelope.

在中国文化中，红色通常象征着好运、长寿和幸福，在春节 和其他喜庆场合，红色到处可见。人们把现金作为礼物送给 家人或亲密朋友时，通常放在红信封里。红色在中国流行的 另一个原因是人们把它与中国革命和共产党相联系。然而， 红色并不问题代表好运与快乐。因为从前死者的名字常用红 色书写，用红墨水写中国人名被看成是一种冒犯行为。

In Chinese culture, red usually symbolizes good luck, long life and happiness. Therefore, red can be seen everywhere during the Spring Festival and other festive occasions. Cash in red envelops is sent to family members or close friends as a gift. Another reason why red is popular in China is that people connect it with China’s revolution and the Communist Party. However, red does not always represent good luck or happiness because names of the deceased used to be written in red. Thus, writing Chinese names in red ink is regarded as an offensive act.
