My husband and I bought our granddaughter Eloise a wedding gift from her registry, but she accused us of being cheap. She expected the $40,000 cash gift we give our grandkids before their weddings. Upset, she threatened to cut us off.
“We buy a small gift from the registry and give a check for $40,000 the day before the wedding,” I explained. This time, we sent an air fryer, the cheapest item on her list. Eloise called, livid: “An air fryer? That’s the cheapest thing you could find?”
I told her, “Yes, we’re cheap, old, and useless. The only thing you didn’t know is that the day before the wedding, we were going to gift you a check for $40,000.”
Eloise’s reaction made us reconsider giving the cash. Later, she found out about our tradition and accused us of discrimination. “Why didn’t I get anything?”
“We felt after your reaction, it wasn’t right to go ahead with the gift,” I said. Eloise, now boycotting Christmas, refuses to understand our perspective. Despite this, our door and hearts remain open to her.
“The Gothic couple then and now!” This is what happened to the unusual bride and groom years later
A few years ago, the Internet was talking about a remarkable and unconventional couple who were one of the most unusual newlyweds with their unique looks and style. The couple’s wedding photos spread like wildfire online and caught the attention of many.
Their informal style and unconventional approach to the wedding, in which the bride appeared with pale, white skin, half-bald, piercings and a black wedding dress, while the groom appeared in white with long, snow-white hair, caused a lot of interest and discussion.
However, in recent years they have changed drastically and even started a family. The transformation they have undergone is remarkable: the bride has become an elegant woman with blonde hair, while the groom still wears his long hair but has developed a mature look over the years.
Their current family photos have touched the hearts of viewers and many online have commented in amazement: “How much they have changed!”, “Hardly recognizable!”, “Time has left its mark”, “An amazing transformation!”.
The story of this unlikely couple is a powerful example of how people can grow and change over time, and how their love and family carry them through these changes.
