The couple (or parents if you’re not financially secure) is having this event to thank those who have ans / or likely to support them as a couple. Expecting money and gifts is really the epitome of low class.

Only for low class weddings. Anyone throwing a wedding with any class doesn’t care at all what gifts are given. Do you expect money when you throw a fancy holiday party?
Wouldn't it be reasonable to think anyone with class throwing a wedding would only invite people who also have class? Class enough that they wouldn't give $75 when a family of four was attending?
Maybe…but they wouldn’t give a flying f**k if people gave anything at all. That’s the difference…and they certainly would t utter the phrase “cover your plate”.
Again…do you expect your guests to “cover their plate” at a holiday party? Sounds like you do.
