Can't Afford To Attend Weddings

Random rant.. Anyone feeling guilty of consciously avoiding to attend weddings in Singapore just because of the high sum expected from ang paos?? Just feels silly and sad to me that we are looking for all affordable options for baby items like 2nd hand items for our 1st bub, but then going for 1 wedding already burns few hundreds from our pockets! Maybe only attend weddings of really really close friends and family... Then again, ppl talk and there's the guilt trip.. Sigh

Attend only the close friends/relatives/colleagues... the nt so close friends/relatives/colleagues will try to avoid...

Nothing wrong. If close friends they will understand. If distance or not close, the more u need not go.

I think don't worry so much, nothing wrong with that. I only go for those that I'm close to.

Nothing wrong with not going. It’s all a means for the couple to recoup costs.

It's the thought that counts, don't bother of what people will think

You have to see your budget more than listen to people.

I think work within your means! Dont overworry about it

These days I only go to those that I’m close with

Attend only close family members.
