This is what I found out after speaking with my Korean niece: Wedding ducks (Hangul: 원앙세트; lit. Mandarin duck set) are a pair of duck carvings (traditionally Mandarin ducks) that are used in Korean wedding ceremonies, and often given as marriage gifts. Mandarin ducks are chosen because it is believed that, unlike other types of ducks, they mate for life, and that if one of the pair dies, the other will mourn. For Koreans, Mandarin ducks represent peace, fidelity, and plentiful offspring.[1] There are Korean stores that sell these little ducks. They are usually red and blue. They can be quite small for shipping and it is a nod to your new DIL’s culture.
