Not criticizing at all; just asking.
I've been to several weddings where there is a pseudo buste at the reception but nothing full on with a la borsa or anything like that.

/edit: A buste is when the bride receives cash filled envelopes from the wedding guests and traditionally they are placed in la borsa (bag).
