Can't stop SMH at this... (tacky wedding invite)

MzRosaLu, on October 12, 2015 at 9:59 AM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 55

The other day, FH's cousin sent a group facebook message out to him and about 50 other relatives saying, "Don't forget to check out our wedding registry in case you want to get us a gift for our wedding." We hadn't even received an invitation yet. We click on the registry link...and there is nothing on it! (see pic) When someone mentioned this in the group message, the bride responded, "That's because you can get us anything." Ok fine, but then why make a registry? Is it just me, or does that make zero sense? The following day, FH received the invitation. 1. The wedding is in March and we are getting an invitation in October (RSVP date in December) 2. It is handwritten! (see pic) and 3. My name isn't on it. FH and I have lived together for three years and are engaged, but I'm not invited to the wedding. (I've never met her, but we were still planning to invite them both to our wedding, since she's FH's first cousin). Is all of this tacky as hell or is it just me?

    @WWKatie, there is just an address to some place in NJ. Doesn't say the name of it. I assume it's maybe a small catering hall?

    Wowwwwww. Although I wouldn't do it myself, I'm going to try not to knock the handwritten invite, maybe that's all they could afford (serious benefit of the doubt!!!!! Lol) but those other things are flat out so tacky and rude!!

    Aww @lizzy now I kinda feel bad. I'm sure they have a small budget, and I would not be knocking that at all. But even with a small budget, there is a way to go about things with more class.

    They are promoting a registry with zero items on it? Wtf? You're right, that makes zero sense. How old is this bride?
