I think it's borderline tacky.

In Reply to: Wedding announcement etiquette question... - June bride

I understand the need to get the message out about where you're registered, but I've never seen anyone put it in an invitation. When me and my group of friends were getting married, we would create a wedding website and put that web address in the invitations. Then on the website, among other things, we would the list places we were registered.

For those who didn't do that, I just called her parents and asked where they were registered.

Thanks for all of the input. I do have borderline HBP sm

and my mother died with CHF and pulmonary edema, so perhaps it might be time to go see a doctor. 


In the meantime, I will try the tip about repositioning myself on the chair ... might have something to do with it.


I'd say they're borderline delusional!

Not tacky at all.

And Tacky!

That's why these boards have the worst reputation.  It's no secret in the industry.  The only thing missing here are F-bombs.  Oh--is that hyphenated per the powers that be?


Get a life.


Just sounds tacky to me!

She was placed in the prone position with her butt cheeks spread apart.


This doctor is always very casual in his style of dictation, but this takes the cake!


Definitely tacky to send a solicitation
in a holiday card. 
It will be deemed as tacky by most invitees.
I would not mention gifts, monetary or otherwise. If someone calls you and asks, then you can tell them about the charity. Period. If they don't wish to donate to that and they give you money, you can donate the money yourself later. If they show up with a blender or something, thank them and donate that to a shelter or something later.

Most people that know you will also know that you are merging two households and have what you need as opposed to newlyweds who are just moving out of their parents' homes and many will likely choose to give a monetary gift anyway.

I feel that by putting any kind of gift request out there, you may alienate those who would like to come celebrate your marriage but simply cannot afford any kind of gift. When you ask for a monetary gift, as in cash or gift card, that forces people's hand. You can find a nice wedding gift somewhere on a sale shelf and spend less than $20 sometimes but if you have to give cash or a gift card, you tend to give more than that so as not to look too cheap. If it's close family/friends, I say they will know to just give money. if it's not, take whatever they offer graciously and either donate it or sell it on Ebay.
I am not miserable, I love my job, all is well with me, but gross tacky humor is just that.

Really tacky on her part - I never discuss salary with anyone but hubby!
She obviously has issues with feeling inferior somehow! What kind of person says, "I make XYZ amount of money" when no one even asks?
Ha ha! But will you start dressing as tacky as Dog and his horrible wife? Yuck! ;)
