Lucky Red Envelopes With Chinese Coin Favor*

• Weddings a thank you favor and a good fortune keepsake handed to each guest as they leave.
• Asian and themed weddings the phoenix and dragon coin carries the traditional symbol of matrimonial bliss.
• Chinese New Year the red envelope in its original setting, given for luck at the start of the year.
• Anniversaries the same phoenix and dragon token, given again on the year you are marking.
• Birthdays a red envelope of good fortune instead of another card that goes in a drawer.
• Baby showers a blessing of luck and prosperity for the family the shower is celebrating.
• Corporate and client gifts a New Year or thank you gesture to clients, with your own message on the card.
• Housewarming good fortune for a new home, in an envelope that can sit on a shelf afterwards.
• Graduation luck and prosperity handed over at the start of a new chapter.
• Retirement good health throughout the seasons, given to someone beginning a slower one.

Care and use

• The coin is affixed to the thank you card, so the card and the keepsake stay together rather than the coin going loose in the envelope.
• The red envelope is a symbol of thanks and good fortune and can be used year round, not only at Chinese New Year.
• At 7"L x 3.5"W the envelope sits neatly on a place setting, in a welcome bag or in a hand at the door.

3. HansonEllis personalizes the thank you cards in-house, affixes a phoenix and dragon coin to each one and ships your order insured by UPS, FedEx or USPS with tracking emailed to you.

• The template thank you message, used exactly as written, when you want tradition rather than invention.
• Both names and the wedding date above a short line of thanks, so the card doubles as a dated keepsake.
• A line in your family's own words about luck and prosperity, kept short enough to read at a glance.
• A New Year greeting for a corporate mailing, signed off with your company name.
• A blessing addressed to the guest's whole family, which is how the tradition is usually spoken.

• Thank you for adding to the joyful spirit of our wedding with your presence as we begin our new life together. Take home this token of our appreciation as a symbol of good fortune and prosperity to you and your family. Much love and happiness

• May this coin bring you good fortune throughout the seasons.
• Double happiness to you and yours, today and all year.

A thank you favor either says something on your behalf or it does not, and at a wedding with hundreds of hands to shake that matters more than the object itself.

For an Asian wedding or a New Year gesture, the envelope with your message and the coin already inside is the version guests keep.
