Well, my wedding gifts are usually proportional to what I imagine the couple have already spent for me to be there.
Someone who throws a wedding with accommodation and everything else all taken care of is going to get a bigger gift than one where I’m just invited to the evening do.
I guess the invite cost something to send so I suppose their gift would probably be about 50p max, if I could even bring myself to send anything.
Funnily if I wasn’t invited to a wedding of a friend for whatever reason and they didn’t send a card like this, I’d probably be more inclined to get a token gift as a congratulations anyway.
i went to a wedding once where the pastor took the whole hour-long ceremony to bash gayness
then the ‘reception’ was breakfast lol
followed by some lame “dating game” between the bride & groom vs the oldest couple in attendance
no booze, no music, no dancing
any future invitations are going in the trash if any of the above elements are going to be involved
I mean, if you knew the couple at all there should have been warning signs?
Wowza. I thought the last wedding I attended was bad, but yours takes the cake. The wedding ceremony was an hour long sermon, but thankfully the worst actual explicit content was a reference to the wife “submitting” to the husband. Which really grossed out me and my entire side of the family & friends (who are largely atheist or non-practising). And then the reception was dry, but at least did have dancing and really good food.
And also I and a few others on my side of the family snuck in hip flasks of booze, which was sorely needed to get through the painfully preachy speeches from the groomsmen. Not one sentence went by without reference to how great god is or how much they and the groom love their sku daddy. The best man’s speech in particular was about ten minutes of saying how much he and the groom loved to go for runs together and then get on their knees and pray together. No, that summary doesn’t overstate the homoerotic undertones.
I keep reading that not as the venue doesn’t have enough space for everyone, but as the venue has banned certain people. I’m really hoping I’m wrong and it is a space issue.
"unfortunately the AI that trump tower uses to match paint swatches to skin color has determined you may not attend our wedding. Please enclose a 250 dollar money order for the bride and groom to use for their honeymoon in Moscow.
… ICE has been alerted to your location
Love and peace
Kevin and Marsha"
I’m more offended by their misspelling of “accommodate” and lack of punctuation in the second sentence. What a terrible way to start their life together.
Whip out the red pen, make corrections, and send it back with points taken off.
Would just send this to popular, rich people in hope they cannot remember if they know me or not
In much the same vain, some guy sent Google invoices/bills and they paid without question, just in case. That was a nice headline.
- Vein.
Origin: Possibly from mining, because valuable minerals often occur in geological veins.
Vain is vanity.
Just don’t send them anything
