Is this tacky?

I always thought (yeah, tacky, I know) that if people invite me for their weddings, they actually want me to be there.

I always thought (yeah, tacky, I know) that if people invite me for their weddings, they actually want me to be there. But now I understand people do not expect all of their guests to show up, which is also tacky.

We currently have 2 tacky invitations for 2 weddings this summer. I’m wondering if we are among those tacky guests who should decline but to the couple’s tacky surprise, we accept? Before you say anything negative, I understand it’s tacky we haven’t RSVPed before we received the invitations.

Is it tacky if I call the couples and ask them if that really want us to show up? Or should we decline and just send them a tacky gift?

Please help, but don’t comment if you’re going to say something tacky. Thanks!

    The wedding is still coming up, so I'll get you more details later, if she goes.

    but here is the Tupperware card box wedding.... I almost forgot the $1400 dress

    Lmfao@Hayley. I can't believe that happened. Maybe they left the box at home?

    Hayley, My aunt has been to the stained tupperware wedding. She said it was so tacky!

    I think you would need to show up right before the bride walks down the isle (spelling is tacky too). and run to meet the groom in your white see through dress with red JUICY panties on.

    NeverYouMind, there isn't a shortage of tackiness. Given that everything falls under that name.

    OMG That is EXACTLY how I want my wedding hair to look like! Unless strangers on the internet think it's tacky.

    OMG Hayley...there weren't as many comments as that thread deserved. Good lord. I do not understand it...I don't. I simply can't think of much more to add to the tackiness of that one.

    Demand that they do the "dollar dance" and pay them in pennies =) Give them a Birthday card and cross out Birthday to insert Wedding Day, don't forget to include an "IOU" for the wedding gift stating that you wish to purchase something on their registery but would like to do so after they have received all other gifts so as not to duplicate any gift!

    I have been sick for 2 days, signing on when I get up to smoke, and going back to bed. This thread has me laughing like I really feel better. Thanks Mrs.S.

    Mrs. S good luck getting any tackier than the thread Hayley shared. WOW

    Only bring a gift if she put the registry card in the invitation.

    Realizing after 9 pages, someone probably already said that .

    Look, I'm sorry that people are so jealous of me, but I can't help it that I'm so popular.
