''Since we know that most of you will not be able to attend, we request that you give us cash to help pay for our dream honeymoon in…' an expensive island somewhere.'
"My former mother-in-law, a very sweet, prim and oh so proper lady who rarely had an unkind word for anyone, received a wedding invitation from one of the children of her very long time next door neighbor. The invitation described a remote hill top wedding venue overlooking the Pacific , at some strange hour that I don’t remember. This was to be followed by a somewhat challenging hike to a remote camp of some sort for the reception.
"The reaction of her children and others present was what you might expect, but she didn't say anything more, tucked the invitation away and went about her business. A couple of months later, I asked her what she had decided to do about the invitation. She said she sent them a very nice set of custom monogrammed bath towels and smiled sweetly with a slightly evil glimmer in her eyes.""I guess this is not ‘unreasonable’ but it was pretty arrogant.
"Not going out at 10 p.m. to buy another one. I printed out the picture of the generous gift and placed it inside the card. When the expectant mother opened my card, you could see her body language change. She stiffened up and looked displeased. The dumb card was more important to her than the gift."
