I don't get invited to many weddings, but this weekend I got an invitation in the mail!! Y'all I literally jumped up and down I was so excited Smiley smile My best friend from high school is getting married, and on a yacht no less. Well I filled out my RSVP and put it in the pile to mail out on Monday, Well, my FH came to me and asked if we were really going....I was like Duhhhh yeea! He said OK but I thought we were trying to save money. I looked at the invitation again and it said:

FREE food, entertainment and ALL you can drink

*$50 admission*

WHAT?!?! Have you ever seen this before?? I really want to go, but $100 plus a wedding gift might be pushing it one week before our wedding.

    I don't understand what the admission is for. Since she's your BFF, can you ask her? Or would that be rude?

    Well, I talked to my other friend, who is a bridesmaid and she said its because they don't have enough people to rent the boat out. So we will be sharing a boat with strangers....

    All I can think about is how awkward it will be for everyone involved.

    LOL OMG! That is NOT free food or drink! I mean a cash bar is a better idea than that! This is a wedding not a club lol. :-D

    Arn't most weddings free food and entertainment plus all you can drink if it's an open bar..... I don't understand why there's an admission fee...

    Oh no! I wouldn't go! If they couldn't afford to have their wedding on the yacht, then they shouldn't have! That's super rude!

    I definitely wouldn't be going. Not to sound mean or anything but that's crazy! $100.00 per couple PLUS your gift. Yeah...no.

    I would skip. if you can't afford to throw your wedding on a yacht, then dont. sharing it with other people is awkward and weird. asking people to pay just to attend your wedding is tacky and rude.

    Looks like they're trying to buy champagne with beer money.
