"We have been invited to a wedding. Evening invite only. The invitation included a tacky poem asking for cash gifts. The bottom line is, we can't really afford to give cash. Generally I'd put my feelings about this type of request aside and give what was asked for but I think the very small amount we can afford to give will look mean".
What's worse is those who were invited to the entire day didn't receive the tacky poem and that's just plain wrong.
The user went on to explain that she and her partner can't afford to give cash and it's just so awful that she's feeling bad that the ideas she has for a gift, donation to a charity or a present for the couple, aren't deemed acceptable.
Unsurprisingly, the majority of people who replied to the post on the internet sharing forum said that this was rude, out of order and that they would go and just bring a bottle of fizz.
You can check the replies here in full and we have to say we're in agreement re the fact that this poem is 'tacky' and it would completely put you off going to the wedding at all.Explore more on these topics:
