You're Not Invited Cards/Emails:
'The groom blames the bride, and the bride blames the groom,' Byron said.
According to Byron, the majority of the time the couples feel super guilty that they have to trim the list and want to explain themselves. 'These are usually people they're friendly with, but not close to,' she said.
But the 'you're not invited' notes have prompted some recipients to voice their fury online.
'These are unnecessary and narcissistic' one CafeMom.com commenter wrote, according to Today.
'Rude as hell,' wrote another.

No one else thinks this is nothing other than hilarious? I would never be offended by getting such a card from the type of self-important guilt-ridden people who would feel the need to send one. At least they're not asking for gifts or donations in the "you're not invited!" card.
Regarding the honeymoon registry donation, it's no more objectionable than a gift registry donation to me (and either should be optional, not expected). If I had the choice, I'd rather donate to the honeymoon than spend the same amount on houseware, especially for couples who've established a household already.
