Robin and I are planning a small anniversary party for my parents (their 30th anniversary is on Tuesday). We are planning to order Chinese food for the meal, do you think it's totally improper to ask our guests to chip in a few dollars to help cover the expenses? I didn't think twice about it until my dad just about had a fit when we suggested it. He figures that if we are inviting people that we should pay for it all. But feeding up to 16 people is going to get quite pricey.
Any thoughts?
I recall a couple of years ago, Lynette, Karen and and I put on a Christmas party complete with a turkey dinner and asked people to help pay. So I don't see what the big deal is.
