Gold Price Volatility Reshapes Wedding TraditionsGold prices surged from $800/gram to over $1700/gram in early 2025, then collapsed to $1500/gram, disrupting traditional wedding customs in China. Young couples are adapting by substituting gold with cheaper alternatives, buying gold bars for custom jewelry, or using costume pieces for ceremonies. The volatility has suppressed jewelry consumption across the market, with retailers reporting declining foot traffic. Regional traditions—particularly in Fujian where elaborate gold dowries are customary—are evolving as affordability pressures force creative solutions.
