1. Guò Dàlǐ (过大礼) – In Chinese tradition, this is a formal engagement ritual where the groom’s family offers gifts to the bride’s family, symbolizing respect and the intention to marry.

2. Pamamanhikan – In Filipino culture, this is the custom where the groom, along with his family, visits the bride’s family to formally ask for her hand in marriage, often bringing gifts or food as a gesture of goodwill.

Both practices emphasize the significance of family involvement and mutual respect in the marriage process.
