Re: Sound the etiquette alarm
Damnit, why didn't I solicit advice here 3 years ago when DH's cousin invited us to a "virtual shower".
speaking of etiquette snafus, remember the hillbilly wedding i attended last summer?
I just finally got a thankyou note. the wedding was in august! I've nearly gestated a human in that amount of time.
I *think* the rule is that you get a year, though. So they were a bit slow, but it's technically OK. I think.
I don't have a problem with the registry being posted online either. But I would have a problem if it was sent in a mass email to everyone on the list. I'm not sure why I make that distinction in my head but I do.
In any case, I held off on forever with making a registry, much less mentioning it. But my church ladies were adamant. It's practically expected so maybe etiquette needs to evolve on this. IDK.
Click me, click me!
Emily Post says that's a myth. The current guideline is 3 months.
Also we gave them a hundred bucks, which, by my estimation, covered around 50% of the cost of the reception. AND we were asked to bring side dishes. A timely thankyou (or apology for the Confederate flags flown over the outhouses, whatever) would have been nice, eh?
That's another one of my favorite excuses. "Well, this is my FIRST WEDDING and so I DON'T KNOW about etiquette because I've never done it before!" And yet, I would imagine the majority of people somehow make it through wedding planning without offending their friends and family. Funny how that works. Kind of like when my mom taught me the rule about not mentioning a registry in your invitations when I was around 7.

Huh, didn't know that.
As to the rest of it, whoa. That is horrible.
Sigh. I was a bridesmaid in a wedding 4+ months ago and have not received a TY note.
