Yikes! If the etiquette board gals don't like ur idea they with you bad!

MomoftheBriade · August 2012

I wanted to find someone who successfully had a cash bar and reception only invite. All I got was bad language and mean words from most of them! Embarrassed for their mothers! Check out the posts wow! Can I talk on here without being called names and reading the "c" word?

achiduck · August 2012

Um, seriously? You posted on the ETIQUETTE board and you really expected people to go along with all the things that you've done that blatantly go against etiquette? Just because people don't agree with you doesn't mean they're being mean to you. Perhaps you should try WeddingBee.

Avion22 · August 2012

HInt: most of us post on multiple boards. So coming to one board complaining about how you're being treated on another board is not going to win you any sympathy.

BrittneyRN · August 2012

I agree with PP. Especially about talking about one board on another. The things you are doing are rude and against etiquette- those girls won't validate bad ideas.

crash2729 · August 2012

You feel sorry for our mothers?

I feel sorry for your daughter.

willywally5 · August 2012

Wow. Really?

You didn't get the 'advice' you wanted so now you are going to complain about it on another board? (Actually, you weren't looking for advice, just someone to validate your rude plans.) That isn't going to happen on a forum about ETIQUETTE.

Further nobody called you a name. They said the good advice found on the E board would keep you from looking like that bad name.

If your sensiblities are that delicate, you really ought not post in public forums, because it seems you just can't handle it.

ETA: My mother is deceased and she would roll in her grave if I allowed my daughter to invite people to only a portion of the wedding. My daughter is getting married next month and she will be having a lovely celebration, with many thanks going to the women here on TK for great advice.

Gabrielle76 · August 2012

It's mostly the same people on all the different boards. If you want validation for your rude ideas try weddingbee.

NOLAbridealmost · August 2012

For the last time, it was not the "c" word!!!

Viczaesar · August 2012

Dude, your title doesn't even make sense.

NcsuPsych · August 2012

If you're so set about having things that are considered to be VERY bad etiquette, why the F would you come on an internet forum and ask for opinions?

If you've got a problem, I suggest posting it here <-Click me.
Posting issues with one board, on another board, isn't the best of ideas.

No idea. . However, since OP can't spell 'Bride' correctly, there is no telling what it means.

A. Your title doesn't make sense.

B. Your plans are rude, and people told you so.

C. No one called you a name.

<div>When you put stuff out on the internet for strangers to read you need to be prepared for people to tell you the naked tuth. there is very little sugar-coating on these board. If you have a bad idea, they're gonna tell you. </div>

RebeccaB88 · August 2012

They gave you perfectly good advice. You would do well for yourself if you'd sit your rude butt down and re-read it, and listen to it. All of it.

But I think you're just a troll.

APDSS22 · August 2012

The E girls can sometimes be sharp, but they always give good advice, especially when it involves such an egregious breach of etiquette. They were actually being quite gentle with you until you started to bash their personal morals. Crying about it cross-board doesn't win you sympathy points. (Just in case you aren't, in fact, a troll.)

TheBaney · August 2012

I wish it were possible for me to understand why you would go to the Etiquette forum to discuss your plans for doing rude things, and want to talk them over.

If you wanted to discuss how doing a rude thing went at someone else's wedding, why would you think that the person to talk to could be found at the Etiquette board?

It makes me sad that this probably is a real person.

Posted by MomoftheBriade[/QUOTE]
It depends on how you define "successful". For example, I have been the date of someone at a reception only invite. We went. It was ok. But I'd be lying if I didn't admit that it made me feel like some guests were good enough for one part of the day while others were only good enough for the other. Did anyone say anything out loud? Nah. But it didn't go unnoticed. Same kind of thing with a cash bar. I doubt someone will go postal or complain to you out loud if you do it. But if your idea of success is to be the best possible hostess to your guests and avoid whispers and eyerolling about these kinds of things, I fear that your goal is unrealistic if you make these choices. Lastly, if you are looking for someone on this board to say that they believe no one will notice if you choose this path and that your guests will be just as happy as if you did it differently you will not find that. My FIs sister had a cash bar in England years ago before I was around and apparently it was no big deal over there in Swindon. But in most parts of this country it's not received well. And you know the saying when in Rome...

Excuse me. I meant to put FI's sister.

NP, I have been to weddings with a cash bar it was fine. Alcohol is offered at this one because the family asked, but not required. Non alcoholic beverages are hosted. Our venue organizer said cash bar is more common than a hosted bar.

OP, if someone says they think you're a troll they're not calling you a name. They're saying that they don't believe you're a person posting an honest question about a real situation and instead you've created a persona to stir things up on an online forum. If you are a troll, you'd know that. If you're not, they don't mean it offensively---it's just that your posts are so unbelievable that it's hard to take you seriously.

Carson386 · August 2012

Just because you post on this board doesn't mean your issues with the other board will go away. People post on multiple boards and nobody is going to tell you that you're right and get it out of your mind that no one on the etiquette board knows anything! They are a smart group of women over there and know what they are talking about. So... SUCK IT UP AND DEAL WITH IT! You asked, they gave answers!
