Bridal Shower Invitation Poem Money Is It Proper To Ask For Money Rather Than Gifts At A Bridal Shower?

Is it proper to ask for money rather than gifts at a bridal shower? - bridal shower invitation poem money

Recently I received an invitation to a bachelor party that included a small poem that gently asked for money instead of gifts. When I was a young girl (38 years), which would have been unthinkable, but perhaps the label has changed. HELP.

  1. It is still unthinkable. List of records of marriage in the shower invitations are hardly acceptable. Nevertheless, the effective, in which bad.

  2. It is still unthinkable. No matter what it is like a nice little poem or a direct request in writing - to ask for money is not only rude, but incredibly rude.

    I seriously call for acceptance of the invitation. How rude and vulgar.

    If you are in fact politically, entitled Act on instinct and buy a gift idea - like a piggy bank.

    Even better would be to donate the money they have spent to purchase, a donation to a charitable organization on behalf of the couple.

    Here is a response to that is for the brides Nice

    There once was a girl named Rosie
    He joined Toes all.
    When ordering cash
    She fell on the ash
    Now it is fixed in the Nosie.

  3. I think that gifts should be chosen by the donor, and I think that borrowing money is very bad taste.

  4. It is unfair to any type of gift, also ask for money. The gifts are being spent kindness. If you ask what would change the meaning of life.

  5. No, it is not, and this is so sad and rude! Label has not changed, but has common sense, insurance, and married a few very greedy.
    Give him a glass of modest charm ... What is the right thing to say ....

  6. I understand that since the start of the bridal shower gift their interest is suitable for anyone. Therefore, on behalf of the party "shower". This party is to "shower" the bride with gifts. Money is a kind of gift.

    You can not search for gifts for yourself (like a wedding set is invited to speak in bad taste), but you can order gifts for someone else.

    Imagine if in this way. Has anyone in your office, never had a colleague who donated fallen on whether the time? The same idea, except that this is a happy time.

  7. You're right - in terms of the label, is still crude, rude, and not simply unthinkable. But children today are no longer increases with the manners or even a rudimentary knowledge of the label. They believe that if someone requests it is okay to say "not necessarily a toaster, we need money for our honeymoon. Is honeymoon registry for sprucing up your money for you. You may want to stop, even on the table at the Reception prefer to take the money donated to Brides especially for bags to collect money at the reception. I'm getting married on October 31, pehaps me to throw, as you propose, and money for the campaign for a rash honeymoon?, why I mean?
    Haha no - seriously - I can not say what kind of gift giving that will gracefully accept what calls enter and leave little poems about Corny requesting dollars. He's right!
    Have a great day & scrounge in her closet for something that can "re Don 'tHem - and be sure to leave the original name day on him, so they have to know what you did! lol

  9. NO! Asking for money is wrong. It is rude and tacky and a bit frightening.

    I would be a serious attempt to reject this invitation with permission.

  10. It is tasteless and rude to make donations of any kind, requires far less money in an invitation!

    Good manners are not has not changed in fashion and etiquette. The fact is that more and more greedy, ignorant, uneducated, tasteless, vulgar and tasteless, couples who believe it is appropriate, and try to do better in Wrting poems Cuts?

    It is rude and offensive to the demand for money, if I were you, would not be present.

    Good luck.

  11. Whether you think it's right or wrong, the truth is it's become a trend in the bridal world. Some couples even set up Web sites where guests can make contributions to everything from honeymoons to house funds.

  12. Label has not changed, it is very rude! Why the hell is that even in the shower, when there is nothing in all that she needs? I did not attend.

  13. Label has not changed, but not cool to be rude.

    I've seen, no shower or wedding. I send a card, and depending on how close it was to the person a small gift. Very little gift.

    They know that marriage crappy (cash bar, food of poor quality, etc.) if you are so rude to ask for cash. Why walk.

  14. I can not believe people really think, it is permissible to ask for money. Or they think that the use of a nice little poem is really good to ask for money.

    I'm beginning to think I'm a different time, because the frequency (this issue and I am!) In my early 30s.

    No, you're crazy. It is doing absolutely right.

    Personally, I am just to give you a card with a heart and fourth to recorded a note: "Here is one quarter. Please use it to name Miss Manners," is quite bad, but I think some of whom must " Pigs Gimme!

    However, I could not do. Who is so tacky to ask for money (although it would be good, right?) If someone faced with a bad taste, what can I buy the money they would have spent to take a gift and a donation on behalf of the couple after a local organization, together with a note: "They said everything that I haveNeed U, I made a donation in his name for ____() love for the needy to help. "

  15. It is still considered impolite.

  16. Things have changed, people now that this is acceptable, but it's still hard. People always ask how this word into your calls here on Yahoo Answers.

    Label has not changed, fewer people with good manners, and people are more materialistic.

    Also be fair to marry people with bad manners, people later in life and living together before marriage or living alone. So many items that you already have.

    This does not change the fact that it is impolite. My wife has never been a shower, there was no reason for the donation of the fisheries do not need.
