Weddings can really be a strain (maybe even pain) for the struggle attendee.
*Gift
*Tux/Dress rental, shoes (if you're in it)
*Airfare (if it's out of reasonable driving range)
*Gas (if it's in driving range)
*Hotel fee (if it's far from home, and you're not in the bridal party, a
groomsman or involved in the wedding)
When folks get married they should consider this stuff...it could be a hardship for the "struggle attendee"
There's no reason why a couple on a joint, 6 figure income planning a wedding with 100-150 people can't offer a gas card to its attendees who need it.
For those who have to fly, pay the airfare.
For those who have to stay overnight, pay the room fee.
Western weddings can be so centric.
It should be a celebration that honors the community of people you've invited, whom ideally, is a big factor helping to provide accountability and added legitimization.
You can just go to the courthouse and do it waaaaaaaaaaay big on the honeymoon if you want it to be all about you.
Cosign..This couple is getting married today and put on the invitations that in lieu of appliances or physical gifts, they would like to receive cash instead..
The wedding is about the couple. If the attendee is going to strain his pockets by attending, then they shouldn't come. I have no problem telling someone that I can't attend their wedding but I will get a gift for the bridal shower or something. If you aint got it, you ain't got it and for some reason people have a hard time saying that.

Cosign to the nth power. I just came back from a wedding for my college roommate in Texas. I live in NC. Had to pay for airfare, hotel, rental car, food, etc. to get out there, and attend a wedding that wasnt even mine. SMH. Crazy.
But at least he wasn't like this broad:
Wedding Gift Amount Deemed Insufficient By Bad-Mannered Bride
It's not my fault you decide to have an expensive wedding, don't expect me to subsidize the cost for you

True...people do have a hard time saying that.
But the wedding is about the people. It's for show.
The marriage is about the couple.
And if a wedding is really ONLY about the couple, then why even invite people?
Just elope.
As I said, for folks who make enough money, not one attendee should have to worry about a thing.
