My wife and I received a wedding invite recently that felt kind of awkward to me. It's a couple who are different religions and they're having one ceremony the first evening, then a second the next day around lunch time followed by a reception. One of them has lost both parents, and the other has lost one, so the invite is worded that Mr X and the Late Mrs X invite you to the first ceremony, then The Late Mr Y and Late Mrs Y invite you to the second ceremony.
Once I read it I'm thinking how do two deceased people invite me to something? I get wanting to honor your parents but it just seemed weird to do it that way.
Anyone else done this or seen this? Of course I may just be put off by the fact that we never got a save the date (but have seen them from others who did get one), weren't invited to the shower that several common friends went to, it's destination and the invite comes 12 weeks in advance with a two week deadline to respond, so obviously B list. Oh yeah, also on the first page in bold letters "No boxed gifts please", so b list and cash grab lol.
