Ok, so FH is making our invitations. He created our response cards and I am not sure of them. I need honest opinions PLEASE. Read each choice carefully.
I will attend with a gift I will attend might bring a gift I will attend not bringing a gift and I will not attend.
Seems like people could be put off by it.
I could be reading into it though.

i think younger people will think its funny.....but older people might be put off by it or confused....maybe you could compromise and just take out the 2 extra replys about the bells?

I agree younger people would probably think it's funny, but older people would be confused.
How about just
Attend with bells on Unable to attend

IMO I think it is a bit confusing....with bells, without bells, not sure of bells....
Just keep it simple..... ITA with JamDancer

I agree.. it's a bit too much
plus it might end up upsetting you. if someone you really didnt want to invite (forced relative) and they do the non bells one that might bother you!!! lol

To me it looks like it means this:
I will attend with a gift I will attend might bring a gift I will attend not bringing a gift and I will not attend.
Seems like people could be put off by it.
I could be reading into it though.
well bells means something else not gifts.
Hmmm to the OP i will say not to use bc maybe not everybody knows that expression. With bells on means that not only will you attend but you will be there and very excited, and kinda like saying oh i will be there and we will party all night, hard to explain lol

To be honest, I don't like it at all. I think it gives the impression that your wedding isn't really a formal occasion, that it's more laid back and casual. And I do think it may confuse people, I would just keep it simple.

Re: Help settle an argument between FH and I
although its a cute idea and i personally would laugh and think its funny, i think other may get confused.
perhaps keep 2 choices and just make those 2 choices unique

Re: Help settle an argument between FH and I
i was thinking of half the guests i invited and yeah it would just cause way too much confusion. For example my family is very european and alot of ppl on my side dont even know that expression, they might think they'd actually have to bring bells or something they would've all probably called my mom asking what this is all about lol.
