It's the thought that counts. And why asking for money is rude.
It is tacky and tastless to ask for cash. I went to a wedding that stated on the invitation, monetary gift are appreciated. Mind you they must of spent 25,000 on the wedding and took a cruise on the queen mary for their honeymoon. I got a gift and the whole thing left a bad taste in my mouth.
