Bangladeshi betrotheds have a message for wedding attendees wondering what to gift them: they don’t need any more juicers, rice cookers or glasses. Cash is king.
According to an article in The Business Standard, cash now tops the list of preferred wedding presents, and with good reason. It’s ‘convenient above anything else’ and it allows the bride and groom to purchase what they need or want. Many couples have taken to social media despairing at the sheer number of duplicate kitchen items they have been gifted, leading to savvier families requesting cash only.
