As a scrapbooker (I admit it) and a designer, I wanted to invite the world to my wedding with intricate invitations on heavy, beautiful paper with raised lettering and postmarks from romantic-sounding cities such as Loveville, Md.
So cute!
But as the bride of a groom whose law school student loans could make it rain $1 bills for 40 days and 40 nights, I want to invite 250 or so people on invitations that won’t equal the price of a wedding gown down payment.
Are the welcome gifts for guests something started recently, just like wedding favors? Is this another stressful thing to add to my expense list?
Matt and I are going to a wedding this weekend (my first Jewish one; I am super excited to have this experience), and the groom (very politely) asked in which hotel we were staying. He wanted to know, because he wanted to know where to send our welcome gift.
