I am going to go against the grain here and say that is fine. I would not be offended if I saw that at a wedding! And for all the people who say that 'its tacky to expect gifts' - come on! It's a wedding, people ALWAYS bring a gift of some sort to a wedding these days! If the bride and groom did not mention anything about gifts, would you say 'ok cool, we won't bother with a gift then?' Of course not! I think the verse you have listed is really nice, except I would swap the word 'cash' for 'money', it just sounds nicer. cheers! ;o) EDIT - To Angeldust, well perhaps you were married a couple of decades ago when things were a little different. Times have changed hun. And you sound like a horrible friend - if they mentioned gifts you would punish them by not bringing one? Shame on you, that is awful. EDIT - Oh sorry Angeldust, of COURSE - so that's the way your wedding was so that's the way everyone's has the be, right? And I don't think my family would be trailer trash like your poor relatives who obviously could not afford to buy you gifts. Or didn't want to buy you gifts....I'm hardly surprised. Purple Haze, at the end of the day, there is nothing wrong with giving guests the OPTION to contribute money towards your house/honeymoon/whatever. The ones who truly love and car for you, will understand that you will put the money to good use, more use than you will have for five toasters or other items duplicated because you already have them. If any of your family or friends decide to punish you buy not buying a gift, that is very rude on their behalf and they are obviously holding grudges by the fact that they didn't get gifts for their wedding!

Happiness cannot be traveled to, owned, earned, worn or consumed. Happiness is the spiritual experience of living every minute with love, grace, and gratitude.

*Like a treasure chest deep in the sea, there is a one in a billion chance that you have come to me*

Here's one I learned from the Marine Corps:
Here's a toast to the maid of honor, for all the times we laid upon her. We ****** her sitting, we ****** her lying. If she had wings we'd **** her flying. Now she's dead but not forgotten, we'll dig her up and **** her rotten. :)

"I have found the one whom my soul loveth." It is from the Bible in Song of Solomon, and we used it on our wedding invitations.
