Oh my god... it's potluck and you still have to pay to get in?????

Apparently, they are expected to bring gifts and their own booze, too. The only entertainment is watching the couple open gifts. 

@beethery - what is the couple providing for their guests?

I didn't want a shower so we decided to do a big "everyone come celebrate and be happy with us" pre-wedding party but future hubby kept trying to call it a "jack and jill" I kept telling him NOOOOO - we aren't asking our friends and family to pay to come party... we just want them to come party!! He got soooo mad when I made him re-do the invites which he was nicely doing for my mom since he does design work... OMG... he was soooo mad... 

We also didn't register, hence why I didn't want a shower, but said if people really wanted, they could bring a 2$ patio stone from home depot since that is our latest house project... I have a nicely engraved one coming from a friend! I can't wait!!

Their presence (not to be confused with their presents).

All I can think while reading this is "let me look upon my kingdom."

Their presence is all they're providing. Ain't my kind of party, I enjoy fun.
