So our wedding was in October- almost 7 months ago to the date.
3 are our good friends we see regularly- like 3-4 times a month didn't give us a card or any type of gift or acknowledgement when we got married. They all did, however take full advantage of the 6 hour open bar and enjoyed themselves to the point of 2 of them throwing up in the hall and outside of the hall. Those 2 had to be escorted out by 2 of my uncles-kind of embarrassing that 2 30 year olds couldn't even handle themselves at a family event, but whatever.
All 3 keep telling us every time we see them, oh I have your wedding card. And make a big deal about it. I say really it's ok. You didn't have to do anything. But thinking - Ok so if you have our wedding card, drop it in the mail already and stop telling me 4 times a month for 7 months about it. If you are just saying it to make yourself feel better that you didn't get us a gift, just stop already, because I don't care at this point! We've been to their houses as well, and when we are there, it is NEVER mentioned.
I'm not trying to sound like a brat, but I am so sick of hearing it every weekend! I don't even want the gift at this point. I just want them to shut up about it. That's that. Now just shut up already about it!
Ugghhhh...bad day! Thanks for letting me vent.
Re: Random wedding rant...
well... i don't know if it'll help.... but we are totally that couple. it takes us a while to get a gift, and then once we do, we always forget to bring it with us when we see them. we don't like actually bringing gifts to weddings. i worry i'll lose it or it'll get lost in the shuffle of things or i feel bad for whoever has to haul gifts around after the reception. but we always come through in the end, even if its a year later.
but i agree that its annoying they keep bringing it up again and again. just drop it until you bring it with you!
Because we're fancy like that.

hey girl! What's up? That is completely frustrating. I would bring it up next time you're over. "So where is this wedding card I hear about so much!" Said with an innocent smile.
