I Want My Petit Gift to Be Rice ♡

Petit gifts handed to guests during wedding receptions and after-parties.

In addition to chocolate and drinks, a persistent favorite is "rice" as a petit gift.

Rice has long been valued in celebrations as a food that symbolizes good fortune.

The reason for this lies in the origin of the kanji for "rice."

It is said that since it takes 88 steps to harvest rice, it became associated with "eighty-eight" → "rice."

The character "eight" indicates prosperity and is considered auspicious, signifying prosperity for descendants.

There's also the custom of the rice shower, where rice is sprinkled on the newlyweds as a wish for "happiness" and "blessings of children" ♡

Furthermore, rice is not only auspicious but also very practical, making it a popular petit gift that is appreciated by people of all ages and genders ♩
