Seen on wedding invitations, the couple are frankly demanding
cash gifts. This has become a trend in desi culture, mostly among Pakistanis. It is considered
bad etiquette and a faux pas by most people, since it is
rude to mention gifts in wedding invitations at all.
guy: what should we get them as a gift?
girl: well, the invitation says 'no boxed gifts'
guy: are you serious?! that is so cheap. it's
like they're asking for
money. let's just give them a card and have it done with.
