Right, this wedding I am going to this afternoon.
The bride and groom have asked for cash instead of gifts, although they have asked for it part of me still feels uncomfortable giving cash as it's such an impersonal gift. So my question to you b3ta is.. Should I just give them the cash that could probably do with OR do I go along take lots of nice pictures reportage style (they have paid the photographer just to take the basic photos of everyone standing in certain places) play about with the piccies make some black and white ones of people straightening dresses and messing with hair and make them an album as a gift that they will have to keep forever?

If you can't be arsed reading all that who do you want to win the Britain's Got Talent final?

Give them cash
it might be impersonal but if that's what they've asked for then that's what they probably need.

I was going to give them £50 if I decide to go with Cash.

Sounds about right to me
The photos are a lovely idea but I know so many married couples that just need to mend up the finances after a wedding

I'm off to a wedding do this evening
I got them a giftcard. As I'm shit at buying stuff and am as creative as dead horse.

I would do the impersonal gift thing, as I would fear whatever I would have made would be a piece of shit.

Give them the gift.
You're the giver - it's your choice, not theirs.

You want to give them some dicked-about pictures of gurning relatives
when they desperately need to pay off the crippling debt they've accrued hosting the entire affair and funding their life together. How fucking selfish of you. Cough up.
