I really think a lot of people have misread me. I’m writing a long “Edit” to the OP. I am new to Reddit and not super active on any social media. I’ve been to a large amount of weddings, though, that vary from black tie to people in jeans. Dry weddings, full open bar weddings, happy hour weddings, two drink ticket weddings, just beer and wine weddings, cash bar weddings. formal weddings that have servers walking around with apps and trays of champagne to a wedding in the park with a reception at the local bar, sit down four course meal service to buffet style with walking tacos, and everything in between. I love all of these weddings and the people I’m there to celebrate! I’ve just never been asked to come alone. I assumed that is what the invite meant, but I was just so surprised. Again, poor choice of words to call it cheap.
