Its like I tell my students, 'You get what you get and you dont get upset'
For someone who is expecting gifts, I wouldn't bring one at all. I'd send it in the mail a few weeks later. Give her some time to believe she wasn't getting anything. I don't like people who expect things. Yes, it's the right thing to do, but don't expect gifts.

Just saw this post, LMAO. That's tacky beyond belief, not to mention presumptuous. You know someone won't be able to help themselves and will bring the biggest box they can find.
Wow. The nerve! How can someone say that?!
And by the way- I would put the card in a box just to piss her off. LOL.
So weird! I never heard of that! They should put their programs in their bank's 'Deposit envelopes' hahaha to get the checks ready.

We got this on an invitation. It was to a close friend's sister's wedding. It was an Indian wedding, I don't know if it's cultural???? I had heard of it being done but had never seen it. I was pretty surprised but thought hey maybe it's cultural.![]()

it kind of is cultural, im from pakistan, i did not write that on my inviation, but i have received plenty of INDIAN invitations, that have said No boxed gifts at the bottom, not because they want $ necessarily, but because the couple will usually end up living with their INLAWS (because unfortunately in Indian culture/custom) this STILL does happen...and then the couple will really have NO WHERE to put all those gifts they receive..theyre already going to be moving in to a ready made house aka their inlaws!
I know it sounds rude, but whatever works...usually in their circle of friends its understandable and no one takes offense because they know the rationale behind it. But i can understand where all the other posts are coming from..it does tend to sound rude..like ok ur asking for $ ?! ...
Ive heard of it. It really doesnt bother me, and I dont find it rude. Maybe they have a lot of out-of-towners coming

Honestly--I hate when people do this because most people know at this point that cash is what people prefer as a gift.
That being said, my aunt gave me a 40 lb espresso machine that I was carrying around while saying good night to my guests...![]()
