I opened an invite that had a card from one of these places, and did a double take. I had never seen or heard of anything like this before.



If I got an invitation with that in it, the bridal couple would receive an etiquette book from me!

As wonderful as getting wedding presents is, wedding guests bring them in celebration of a wedding, not to be fleeced. If you really want a house, cut back on the wedding frills.
