The wedding invitations To prepare the invitations is a stressful job for the bride and the groom.They will start with the listings of all possible guests.It’s stressful because if their budget is good only for 50 people and the expected guests on the list is 100,there is a problem.Filipinos think their friends and relatives will feel bad if they do not receive an invitation;whether they can attend or not,they are expecting an invitation.Usually,the couple will stretch(尽力使用) their budget for the extras just not to disappoint friends and relatives. |
