    [QUOTE]LUV can I tell you I've thought the same thing for YEARS?! I don't understand it... I think it's really tacky and selfish. I think this post makes perfect sense because it's an etiquette board and to force guests to travel 3,000 miles for YOUR wedding is just plain awful.
    Posted by BeachMuffin[/QUOTE]

    Well, I actually LIVE 3,000 miles from my parents, so I guess I just shouldn't invite them. Then they won't have to worry about spending their money on my selfish-ass.

    [QUOTE]Clearly beach muff is the only sensible one on this planet who has real manners.  Your wedding isn't about your "dreams."  It's about celebrating with family and friends...why would you have your wedding somewhere that would force people to spend gobs of money to let alone travel there, on top of the hotel and gift costs???  It's just really selfish and unrealistic for most people, especially in this economy.
    Posted by luv626kee[/QUOTE]

    Nope, it's about GETTING MARRIED.  Should you choose to invite them, it can include your family and friends.  But, it doesn't have to. 

    So, who's having a DW that you can't afford to attend?  Who is it that you want to make feel guilty?  Send your regrets and get over it.

    OP - I refuse to believe you're a real person.  Just fess up now.  You're some fakey faker who's making stuff up, correct?

    Also, I've never been to Jersey - but I find it so unfortunate that you seem bent on making other Jersey girls out to be asshats like yourself.

    False. I highlighted the part regarding the mother being unable to come and still thinking about it to this day. Not sure why you thought otherwise. I think that is the most awful self centered thing I've ever heard.

    Um, yeah several people have to travel to my wedding in the United States...all people who LIVE in the U.S. So I'm awful for inviting people who live out of state and having a MOH who lives across the country...who has to travel here? 

    Salt, FI & I were sad to not be able to attend your DW. If it weren't for our own wedding this year, we would have loved an opportunity to take a dream vacation AND spend a very special day with friends!

    Some people have destination weddings so that those with sticks up their bums like you won't come.  It leaves their wedding day quite happy, dontcha think?

    How's that for a reason?

    But then you'd just not go right?  You wouldn't flame every person who ever had one, supported one, paid for one, or attended one would you?  You'd let it be their choice? 

    That's the difference.  Well at least I hope that's the difference between you and OP.
