You never know who is reading this board.  It doesn't even have to be her daughter.  Enough info. has been given by the OP about this wedding, including what she and the MOG wore and where they bought their dresses, that it wouldn't be hard for someone to figure out if they were involved in any way with this wedding.

Back in the day, we opened our own wedding gifts and cards (with checks in them) ... and we waited until we were married to start having babies.   


I think back in the day many couples married because a baby was on the way. The difference is that then many tried to hide it and there were lots of 8 lb preemies. Today the news is broadcast within 5 minutes of conception.

In my short time participating on this board, I have learned that regardless of what is posted, someone will read the post and feel compelled to express negativity.   I will never understand the need to do this.

Please tell them to think about saving it all.  It may come in handy one day.  Money goes out much faster than it comes in, a GOOD LESSON for all.
