So I just got married a month ago, and I can honestly say I had the time of my life. But, there was something that really disappointed me. I had many guests attend our wedding and not bring a gift. Of course, I know you're not required to bring a gift, and I COMPLETELY understand if you are financially unable to give one. But, that's not my issue...
What irked me was those who did not bring a gift did not give a card, either. I'm not talking a card full of money, I'm talking a card in general. JUST a card.
We had a few people that came with no gift, but still gave a card, which I thought was very thoughtful because at least they were acknowledging the fact that it was a special day for my husband and I. But for those who didn't bring a gift, I feel as though they should have at least given a card just to show acknowledgement, as I feel like those who showed up with nothing at all just attended to get free booze and dinner.
So - I want some opinions, ladies. Would you be upset if this happened to you, too? Again, it's not the fact that I didn't get gifts at all. I just feel that if you're not bringing a gift, you should at least give a wedding card to acknowledge and congratulate the bride and groom.
