See, things like that I have no idea why many of the guests would want to keep something like that.
The couple themselves, and possibly immediate family, yes. But outside of that it's largely a souvenir that goes straight in the bin or gets broken that one Christmas when it falls out of the cupboard as you forgot it was there. :laugh:

I haven't been to many but the cutest I ever got was a lady from work, a little wooden fridge magnet with their names, the wedding date and a thank you on it. So so pretty, not sure where it is or I would take a picture.

My niece had this poem and she has bits that were in the poem, all made up in a bag, will have to try and find the poem otherwise this story means nothing...
Mr C's nephew had old fashioned teacups and jars of biscuits on the table, his now wife got the tea cups from charity shops they were lovely and we got to take the cup and saucer home as a keepsake.

Oh I like that idea
We all got toys when we were kids at a cousin's wedding. I think mine was a football or something. Ew.
My auntie wanted to have goldfish centrepieces and then have everybody take one home afterwards but I don't think she did it in the end (I hope not anyway) but I never went to the wedding.

How kind of you LT. :smug:
Most weddings I've been to you got a free glass of champagne on the way into the sit down meal mid-afternoon, along with the paid for three-course meal. But then buy all of the rest of your own drinks.
Then you might get another free glass at the entrance to the night do. :laugh:

Scottish generosity?
What Marsh said though, I got a free glass of Pimms (the best drink I had that night tbh) then the rest you had to pay for (although I think other people paid for me anyway :angel:)

Well it wasn't just that. :oh: It was like a choice. Champagne, bucks fizz, white wine and a couple of cocktails. The waiters were handing them around.

Handjob under the table.
Oh you mean like little gifts? Usually just those mini bottles of alcohol.
