I think that the brides in Hamilton were the worst, but
here's the runner-up. The guest was paying off student loans, and worked part-time. She gave the wedding couple $100.00, which they didn't particularly appreciate:
Hi Tanya, how are you? I just want to know is there any reason or dissatisfaction of Mike's and I wedding that both you and Phil gave 50$ each? In terms of the amount we got from you both was very unexpected as a result we were very much short on paying off the reception because just for the cocktail + reception alone the plate per person is 200$ (as per a normal wedding range with open bar is about) and Mike and I both have already paid for everything else including decor, photography, attire etc and didn't expect we had to cover that huge amount for reception as well. As I know you both live together and work, so I did not see any reason for that amount, when it comes to your wedding hopefully you'll know what I mean. I hope for the best as from what we receive is what we will give back. Anyways, good luck on everything.
What a jerk. If she didn't want the $100.00, maybe she could have found a charity that would better appreciate it.
I have to add that money seems to be a popular wedding gift in Vancouver. Not because people are being gimmiepigs, but because a lot of people (who own a place) live in teeny-tiny condos and don't have a lot of room for stuff.
