Chinese 訂婚 Guo Da Li Invitation Wording.
The formal betrothal, where the families commit and often fix the date.
- Who invites
- The parents invite, named with generational courtesy. The banquet, not the ceremony, is usually the event the invitation is built around.
- How it opens
- The double happiness character 囍, with the lunar date given alongside the Gregorian
- Register
- Red and gold, formal, and specific about the banquet — table assignments matter more than atmosphere here.
