In Chinese culture, chopsticks are often given to guests because the Chinese words for chopsticks (or at least the Cantonese words) are homonymous with the words for having a baby quickly. What I don't get is why the GUESTS are the ones getting the chopsticks and not the actual couple!

Fye gee=Chopsticks in Cantonese

Fye also means fast or quick

gee can also mean baby
