The coronavirus pandemic has changed life as we know it, forcing us all to find contactless ways to go about our days and the wedding world is no different.

An Indian couple recently went viral for their inventive way of accepting monetary wedding gifts. Instead of a cash donation, this couple asked wedding guests to scan the QR code of Google Pay and PhonePe on their wedding invite so that they can easily transfer money without physical contact.

“About 30 persons had used the facility and gave cash as their wedding present,” said T.J.Jeyanthi, the mother of the bride. “This is the first time such a thing has been attempted in our family.”

Besides being COVID-19 safe, this is also a more eco-friendly option as it eliminates the need for envelopes and cards. It also makes it so much easier for you to save money, as it is already in your bank account.
