[quote=Anonymous]I'm Indian American and this is the standard. We put "no gifts" on our invite. We weren't expecting anything, but it is the tradition to give money. And as the other poster pointed out, you keep track because you always give back the same or more. It's tacky to the western standard and customs but it is the norm for other cultures. Just as some western traditions/customs can appear tacky to other cultures. Getting overly upset about these things or sending things in a bottle/book/bag, etc to make the point that you don't like it is petty.[/quote]
