Besides thisPlease don't bring a gift, but cash is gladly accepted...and please bring a main dish of your choice"

Ha,ha,ha nooooo, I was kind of mean and since she asked for cash I put $1 (yes one dollar) in a envelope and as a main dish I brought 'chips and salsa' 
hi,hi
But, let me add that these couple are NOT poor(you should see their house and cars they drive ) plus that was her 3rd and his 2nd wedding so they have everything!! I'm friends with the whole family for a long time so I (almost) felt that I 'had' to attend her 3rd wedding....

Just goes to prove that age ole saying...........
All the money in the world can't buy you class, manners or good breeding
I'm friends with the whole family for a long time so I (almost) felt that I 'had' to attend her 3rd wedding....
LOL LOL LOL....... Just think - by the time wedding number 4 comes around - you will only have to give 50 cents and then the 5th wedding will be free - ROFL......oh, and a plate of food
And here was i thinking this was rude -
That being invited to a wedding - being given the name of the shop where the gift registry was - and how much they would like us to spend........ THEN reading on the attached note inside the invitation -
*please help us out by paying for your meals when ordering at venue* DH refused to eat on principle - lollllllll
We left early and sat down along the river in our evening wear - eating take away pizza - lolllllll
Nine weeks later we rec'd a card thanking us for their gift -
with another note attached
*if you would like to purchase one of our beautiful wedding photos -
please fill in form on back of this note*
DH
and threw said note in bin.
Thirteen Months later we get another card informing us that *we are so happy to announce that soon there will be the pitter patter of little feet in our home*
Please bring a share plate and join us on such and such a date....and something pink for soon to be darling little girl.
We didn't - as we were dreadfully busy that day.
And we never got invited to the Christening either - lolllllllllllllllll
Oh dear - how sad - never mind .................................

This whole thing made me laugh!
This is one of the funniest threads I have ever read.
I don't know how you kept a straight face when she suggested everyone could decorate their own cupcake. I'm pretty good at keeping a straight face but I don't think I would have been able to on that one.
Thanks for all the laughs everyone!
