Paper doilies are harder to find these days, but one Forumite is hoping to track them down
Money Moral Dilemma
Every week, the Money Tips email features a real-life Money Moral Dilemma (MMD for short). They're intended to encourage debate and, as such, they're usually among the most discussed threads each week.
Can we uninvite people to our postponed wedding to save money?
We're now replanning our postponed wedding and we're looking again at the guest list. Some people had accepted our initial invitation, but aren't on our 'A-list' of guests, and as we would now like to spend less, is it OK to uninvite some of those guests who had already said 'yes'?
See what our MSE Forumites had to say and add your own thoughts on the Money Moral Dilemma discussion thread. Do please stick to the MSE Forum rules: keep it kind and keep it clean. Remember, there's a real person behind every dilemma.

Photo of the week
It's St David's Day so we've been thinking about Welsh cakes and delving into the Forum archive for some of the great recipes that have been shared over the years. Senior Forum Ambassador sarah1972 posted this photo of a delicious-looking plate of the Welsh delicacies.
Please note: We love seeing your photos in the MSE Forum, but if you're uploading one, make sure it doesn't include any personally-identifiable information such as your face or address.
