I Just want some thoughts on this;
My mom made the comment the other day that i need to make sure I send an invitation to my Great Aunt who lives in Florida (I'm in MN) because, in her words, she says "She wont come but she has money and will send you guys a nice check" I was a little taken back by this.. I'm not getting married simply so people will give us money and gifts.. Now, I'm aware of how rude this is and I know my Aunt can't come due to health issues but should I still send her a save the date and invitation?? This is not the only person my mom has said this about either, I'm just at a loss because these people are special to me and would like to invite them them even though I know they can't attend. I know weather or not they send a gift is their own choice and just because I send them an invitation absolutely by no means they have to/will send something but my moms comment just put a bad taste in my mouth about it and I just feel guilty knowing shes probably right..
