GEN: etiquette: anniversary invitation

[rschulte <rschulte@WTN.K12.SD.US>]

Can anyone give me the proper etiquette on an anniversary invitation we
received.  My Aunt and Uncle are celebrating their 35th anniversary this
summer.  Their kids are having a surprise party.  We just got the RSVP
form for the dinner, and how much it will cost us.  We will be traveling
almost 2 days to get there, and spending money on motels at least 3
nights.  My sister says it is tacky for them to charge us for the
dinner??  What is the proper etiquette on this, or is the a BOOK that I
could look in????

Please reply off the list.

THANKS!!
