Is This the Future of Weddings? Bride Charged Guests $75 for Dinner!

What About a Suggested Donation?

Another user chimed in with a blast from the past, recalling a bridal shower invite that came with a “suggested donation” of $25. Apparently, it’s really not strange to receive monetary requests. At least here, the cost was just a suggestion and upfront, not a post-RSVP plot twist.

And let’s face it, $25 feels like pocket change compared to the $75 dinner bombshell. In her case, a gift was still on the table, so maybe it was more like a two-for-one deal. As the thread unwinds, we see a pattern that paints a picture of the evolving wedding scene—one where your presence might mean presenting more than just yourself.
