COST7SY ,WEDDINGS FOR .GUESTS.
A Royal wedding is a very expensive
affair, not only for those who give it,
but for each guest. The presents neces
sarily cost the guests a great deal, for
only the richest and rarest gifts can be
offered to Royalty. Besides a gift, each
guest must have a sum of money for
every servant and attendant in his host's
house. As there are numerous attend
nuts, and each one must receive a "tii"
according to his rank, a great deal u*
money. is necessary. At the marriage
of the Grand Duke and Duchess of Hesse
the guests left altogether £1759 to be dis
tributed. besides bestowing over £1500
worth of gifts among the servants before
their departure.
