Entrance fee for the wedding?

At first, I was horrified while reading this.. Lol!

Yeah def gurl! Also ask ur guests to bring food too so yu don't have to pay!!!!! So they bring money to get in, money for the bar, food, and a gift for u! Yaaaaaaaayyyyy

Make sure to ask your bridesmaids a year and a half out at least, so they have time to lose the weight you demanded. If they don't comply, they don't really support your special day. Fire them.

Ooh! And then don't forget to come back and post your BAM and tell us all how perfect it was!!!

eta: coffee before talky

We should start a "Go fund me" too.

Don't forget to tell guests that you will only accept cash as a gift and anything else must come with a receipt to be returned for more money

Ladies, and gentlemen, you are forgetting, cash bars are so passé! You have a shower and tell everyone to bring you booze, "Stock the Bar" Baby! Also, you can't forget the Stag and Does, don't worry, there are prizes!

We thank you for coming

To our special day

But we're not properly hosting

We want you to pay!

This dumb cutesy poem

Will make it alright

That we're ignoring etiquette

All fucking night

FutureMrsHodge: A Stag and Doe, AKA Jack and Jill is a party that is thrown (and paid for) by the WP to raise money for the wedding. Tickets are sold to family, friends and outsiders, there are games, food, a cash bar, and prizes offered up over the night with tickets sold for everything and proceeds going to the wedding. It is a thing in Ontario where I'm from and Manitoba too. I'm not sure about other places in Canada or the States.

At a wedding I've seen a "dance with the couple in return for a donation for their "baby carriage""lol

@Webb That is the best!!! Next time my mother suggests something terrible in lieu of the dollar dance I refuse to have, I'm totally sending her that poem.

On second thought, I'm all-in for an entrance fee. I'd do the dollar dance, but why not just force some BMs to stand at the door and charge my guests so I don't have to exert myself!

No problem MrsBBR! I just came up with it on the fly, lol.

Great ideas!

Mrs. Webb FTW!!

OMG!!!! Keep the great ideas coming. I am dying of laughter reading the comments.

Love the poem @Mrs.Webb.
