Is it because they think that contributing money buys them a controlling say in how the wedding goes? That's not cool, and it's certainly no gift.
I think 2/3rds of the guests are my parents' buddies heh. There's a clash about guestlist, food, seating, font on the invitations..
I think the control will go beyond the wedding. You're not calling enough, coming over for dinner enough etc... which my guess will lead to a bit of resentment and regret.
