Why do people think it's ok to ask how much you spent on wedding items? Not you girls, clearly you're asking because you're also planning a wedding. Someone in my office asked how much I spent on my cardbox and when I refused to tell her she told me she'd find out and wanted to know the website I bought it from, and she's not the first person to ask about $$$. I'm shocked Do you girls experience this?

Re: rudeness!
I'm glad you girls think it's rude too, she was the 2nd person to ask how much I spent on the card box and I was beginning to think maybe I was being too sensitive! Seriously, what is wrong with people?

Re: rudeness!
oh ok, and the best part, I showed her the pictures on shutterfly and she said she was going to find out the price (after I wouldn't tell her) and I said it's just the album you won't get prices there and she left my cubicle saying she is going to find out the price. I'm hoping this was her being facetious

wow thats insane! i could see asking the price out of curiousity and then feeling guilty when the person says no.... but to tell you she's going to go find it?!!!!!!!!

Re: rudeness!
Maybe she thinks it's so amazingly beautiful and is just curious how much something like that would go for. I have been asked $$$ questions. Sometimes I take offense and them sometimes I am very flattered becuae they thought they item was gorgeous and must have cost a fortune. I usually respond by saying how much do you think I spent.

Re: rudeness!
people ask me alllll the time. It makes me uncomfortable. And for the most part, people who are asking usually remark with 'I would never spend that much'
Although most of those comments come from people who never threw a wedding..

actually, the 2nd woman that asked me I did tell the price to because I can tell she asked because she loved it. I really think this first person asked because she wanted to tell me I spent too much. She even tried guessing at one point and threw out the price of $20, it was a lot more than that! After that I definitely wasn't going to tell her!

OMG I was just complaining about this to FH- one of his bm's girlfriends asks about how much for EVERYTHING and it drives me nuts- we are looking for a house & she asks where, how much the house is, etc- I feel like saying- why are you gonna pay for it for us!
sorry for the vent- but I feel your pain
