Basically sends an essay with each invite. On the essay it requests people to pay for their own food and booze and asking to donate to their gofundme for the honeymoon. She's only 19. Her future husband is in for a life of pain. |

No, but I'll donate to his lawyer fund for the inevitable divorce.........

I would not be attending. View Quote ETA- dictating colors and no cameras is weird though. She expects people to buy new clothes? Stupid. |

Went to a wedding in January and the night before the wedding the bride’s mom asked everyone to pitch in to pay for the shuttle to the venue. The dumbasses booked the hotels for everyone about 1.5hours away from the venue
That whole wedding weekend was fuckin stupid |

That doesn't seem ridiculous. At least everyone knows what is up before they get there expecting an open bar.
Way better than the girl the other month who wanted everyone to pay her $1500 or whatever. |

Quoted: I wouldn't either...and the way she did it was tacky, BUT... she's basically saying in lieu if gifts please help with the honeymoon. That's not so bad. ETA- dictating colors and no cameras is weird though. She expects people to buy new clothes? Stupid. View Quote |

Agree on the honeymoon part. But the pay for your own food and booze? Over the line. If you can't afford a reception, don't have one. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Yep... would not attend, and hate to wish others don’t attend so she learns a lesson.
Having a cash only bar and serving limited food is fine if you honestly can’t afford it and are doing a small non lavish wedding, but asking guests to pay for their stuff “and” personally give you money is just rude entitlement. |

She seems like a nice, sweet, pleasant girl to be around. I'm sure her husband won't drink himself to death in under 10 years.

Weddings are stupid. Just go to the courthouse, get married, grab some Pizza Hut afterwards then drive back home. Done deal.

Mrs. IHJ and I had our wedding in front of a few of our family and friends in her mother’s church, and an equally small reception at an English pub that used to be on Elliston Place. It was pints of beer, fish-n-chips, a Celtic music band that played there all the time, and a good time that was had by all. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I knew a dude that dodged a bullet.
His ultra liberal, crazy, fiancee wanted a wedding in Bermuda, at a resort, and a two week honeymoon there. Her father fitted the bill, spending god knows how much on the wedding. To attend, you had to have a passport, pay for a flight, pay for the room, bring gifts, the whole nine yards. Still, 20 some people went. He got cold feet over it, and missed the flight. I think they settled on a 30K payout from him to cover some of the costs. Probably the best money he ever spent. |

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. A lucky sixpence.. Naw. Fuck you.

Good Lord, this is a dupe of a weeks old event and GD post. Wake up.

Millennials. Too fucking stupid to realize that telling someone about proper etiquette is poor etiquette. Yes, you are expected to bring a gift to a wedding. Sure it is fine to announce a gift registry. Perfectly ok to announce byob and if it is s pot luck. But for Christ sakes don't put a cover on the meal and be sick a self centered ass to request money only.
in all fairness, it is not even poor taste for groomsman and bridesmades to pass the hat (in one form or another) to fundraiser for the honeymoon. Arround here there are contributions for lapel pins, and donates for homemade wine shots. Going to a wedding in a bit that will have donations for tequila shots. |

I've kept it in for all these years, but I felt like your reception at that pub place was a chickenshit and cheapass piece of crap. And I hate you for it. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Don’t worry, they repaired the dent your head made in the front door the next day, and you don’t owe them anything for it. Nigel and Sid say ‘hi’, and that you are welcome back anytime, as long as you drink what’s on tap and don’t act like ‘a fuckin’ tosser’. Their words, not mine. |

If you can't afford the reception don't have one,we cut back on the wedding/honeymoon so that we could have a awesome reception with family and friends.
different priorities I guess. |

I probably wouldn’t decline to attend on those particular terms, though I do tend to skip out on weddings where children are uninvited. It’s really not all that demanding, imho.

Silly that everyone wants a princess’s wedding. Get real, you’re likely not a princess.
