LADIES! LISTEN UP.... Have we not learned from posting here at CB that money showers are a cultural thing??? OK, Italian brides...if it is customary in Italian culture to have a money shower than who are we non Italian brides to say it is rude??? Wow we need some more tolerance of peoples differences on CB. Some people have cash bars, some people have meal service, some people have money showers, some people have no bridal parties, some people have destination weddings, some people marry girls. We are all different. No one is right or wrong here. How long do we have to argue over things that its ok not to agree on?? Now lets just hold hands and sing... hugs and kisses LOL Kruk, well said. Doesn't anyone watch that show "Weird Weddings"? That's a good example of how many different things (different than we're used to) can be done!

the original poster asked "what do you girls think" about money showers. so, i replied with what *i* think. other people responded with what they think. when people ask for opinions, that's what they get.

| This is quite common in the area in which I live. I have been to many showers like this where they open the presents when you come in and display them. Most of the showers in my area are 200+ people so they tend to get long and boring so I dont mind not having to sit through them opening the gifts. BUT thats how it is in the area where I live, it may not be the same everywhere! Personally, I would not do it but then I didint have a 200+ shower.

I don't mind going to money showers, it saves me from going out and buying a gift.

Now lets just hold hands and sing... hugs and kisses I'm glad somebody said it. And can we please stop throwing around the words "tacky" and "rude" with this issue? It's an unnecessary adjective in expressing an opinion (there are hundreds of other ways to say what you think without being a jerk about it), and clearly it's p***ing people off.

tack·y
adj. Informal tack·i·er, tack·i·est
1. Lacking style or good taste; tawdry: tacky clothes.
2. Distasteful or offensive; tasteless: a tacky remark.
If someone feels something is lacking style or good taste, is distasteful, offensive, or tasteless then what is wrong with using the word "tacky?" It may best describe how someone feels about something. We're on a public forum where people will have differing opinions. I think people get far too worked up over this word.
