Poll: tackiness
IHO lachute's preprinted ty note I ask you all...
What is the tackiest thing you've ever seen etiquette wise or just randomly?
Mine is e-mailed invitiations for a DW wedding. As in, just the text of an email, not an e-card or e-vite or anything of the like. I kid you not.
Re: Poll: tackiness
lol...see my post below...SIL who goes out of her way NOT to send us a TY note EVER....
and for the record...they are not close...so it wasn't like they didn't b/c we wouldn't care...
i actually save "special" ty notes from bff's showers, weddings, etc b/c they are so sentimental and very personal
Obvi nothing will compare to Lachute's!
I'm sorry to ruin the post. But really it was the most insane thing ever.
This same cousin branch showed up at Milo's first birthday RSVPing two hours before by email bringing two friends of the their family we never met.
They are an odd bunch.
I was in a wedding where one of the bridesmaids was not given a +1 because only engaged/married people were allowed to bring a guest. I understand needing to draw the line somewhere, especially since their wedding had nearly 200 people. However, this poor bridesmaid was the only bridesmaid/groomsman without a date at the wedding (and we were all sitting with our dates). And it's not like she just met her boyfriend....they had been dating for over a year.
As a bridesmaid, she paid over $200 for a dress, plus hair and makeup. And then there was the bridal shower we hosted, the bachelorette party, and gifts. I felt really bad for her.
Um....I have actually NEVER received a thank you note from anybody on H's side despite the fact I have seen others receive them and have spent a lot of money over the years. His biitch sister has never even acknowledged the 200 bucks we gave her son for his Christening nor every received one for her wedding, son's birthday, baby shower, wedding shower...you get the point. I also have never received one from any of Matt's brothers or sister-in-laws, so yeah, I could go on and on. Oh, also none of his 7 siblings gave us anything for our wedding not even a card.
Also, Matt's mother has never came to anything of mine or my daughter's and has canceled all at the last minute via facebook. Let's see, my bridal shower...her cat had to go to the vet, baby shower....her water heater broke and couldn't take a shower so didn't come...Ava's first birthday...who knows just never showed nor sent a gift for her own grand-daughter. His family is full of fun!
We just got a text from The Dudes aunt that said "this is your official save the date. I'm getting married on August 4th" I should note this is her 4th wedding and she came to our wedding with her daughter and gave us nothing. Needless to say, I'm not going.
Also, The Dude is one of 5 kids. None of them got us a wedding gift.
My little nuggets
Ok, I totally shouldn't be posting because I have 0 time at work right now... however I had to post mine.
A postcard from Disney World (their honeymoon) was their thank you card. Not a custom-printed job, just a .15 postcard and on the back was one sentence. "Thank you for coming to our wedding!"
I was a co-maid of honor.
I gave a gift.
Paid for part of not one, but 2 bach parties. A spa weekend and a evening trip in a limo to NYC.
They divorced 2 years later and I came to my senses and cut off all communication with said friend.
