Wedding or Fundraiser? Bride’s $75 Dinner Charge Sparks Heated Debate
Canada Is Not to Be Left Out
Weddings in Canada have a similar vibe to those Asian and Mediterranean celebrations regarding gifts. It’s all about the green, as in cash, not maple leaves! Guests often gift money as a heartfelt gesture of support, not because they’ve been strong-armed into it.
This tradition is miles from our original story of the bride charging for dinner plates. In Canada, there’s no surprise bill after you’ve RSVP’d. The money-gifting is a voluntary show of love and support. It allows guests to contribute to the couple’s future without feeling like they’re paying an entrance fee.
NEXT: What have we learned? That wedding should never be a transaction.
