Re: ridiculous gifts u got at the wedding...

we had 1 no gifter and a bunch of cheap gifts. and random combos - one friend gave me bath towels and a trivet. what??

but the worse were two couples who got married right before us and gave us considerably less than we gave them. i don't understand that at all.

Re: ridiculous gifts u got at the wedding...

my cousin, who is a bartender, insisted on getting us glasses (rocks and martini glasses) even though we told him we were good - we have plenty of glasses and a well stocked bar ... he said he was doing a 'custom' drinks book for us but we haven't seen it yet ...

Re: ridiculous gifts u got at the wedding...

My cousin who got married a few months earlier that us in bumble F---she gave us considerably less than we gave her.

A bunch of non-gifters, all that are well off.

One very wealthy family of 4 gave us a picture frame I can't return because I don't know where it came from.

Re: ridiculous gifts u got at the wedding...

I just kinda stood there staring at it, and he left the reception to go join his wife at home (yeah, he's married too.... it was quite odd. I was a guest at their wedding, so it seemed equally odd)

Re: ridiculous gifts u got at the wedding...

I def forgot to include a gift from my brother's two best friends: a shake weight, a package of 3 condoms, a baby outfit (incase the condoms don't work), a gigantic bag of popcorn and a fuzzy hat.

Re: ridiculous gifts u got at the wedding...

A few non-gifters

A family of 4 gave us $100

An American Express gift card that's impossible to use any where. It has $200 on it but I have a feeling someone gave it to them because if you have the $200, why put it on a gift card??

And the best gift is from one of FH's long time friends who is weird and anti-social. He's also Chinese. He gave us a banner that has two cartoonish looking Chinese people on it and it says something in Chinese and then in English. I don't even remember what it says. I should post a picture of it though. It's hilarious.

Re: ridiculous gifts u got at the wedding...

We got a food saver.

You know one of those things where the plastic wraps the food so you can freeze it?

Needless to say we returned it to BBB... they'll take anything!
