What do you think about wedding gifts? I am marring A girl from another country and will be missing the gifts?
All the cost involved in getting to this point has stopped me from being able to have a wedding with gifts and we have no family to invite either. Do you think this will look bad knowing that women like to have some excitement and memories to keep?

Is it poor etiquette to not ask for wedding gifts?
My fiance and I have been an established couple for 3 years. We've been living together for the last 2. We have everything we need. With our upcoming bridal shower and wedding, we felt no need to register for gifts. We thought we would ask for contributions to our honeymoon instead. The bride's mother accused us of poor etiquette, and the sister in law, who is throwing the wedding shower, can't figure out how to word invitations because we're not registering. Any suggestions? All responses are greatly appreciated.

Opinions on where to register for wedding gifts?
We have registered at Target and Bed Bath and Beyond. We don't need any bedding type stuff, and the first two stores mentioned, we pretty much registered for everything possible that we could use. It will be a fairly large wedding and we just want enough things for everyone to be able to buy, should they choose to do so. Any other ideas of where we could go?

I don't feel comfortable registering for wedding gifts, do I have to?
A registry may makes it easier on guests, but what if I don't want anything at all? I would just like the wedding to be a fun, obligation free, occasion for family and friends....do people enjoy buying presents off registries?Would this be mistaken for wanting cash?

What to get for wedding gifts?
My fiance and I are getting married in summer 2010 and we're having trouble of what to get for our parents as wedding gifts. I feel like I should be getting my parents something more than his but I don't want to play favourites and make one feel upset that one parent got more than the other it's just my parents are footing the entire catering bill for $185 people and his parents are pitching in a dime. They're also divorced which makes it even harder to get a gift because I can't get a couple gift. Does anyone have any ideas? Am I wrong to want to give my parents something bigger for paying for a lot of the wedding?

Do you know of a website that allows a bride to politely accept cash as her wedding gifts?
Most answers say it is tacky to ask for cash and yet you wonder if there is a website out there that will make it less tacky. A site that maybe allows you to develop an on line profile to include as one gift registry option in your invitation. This is fairly urgent.

Is it bad to ask for strictly gift cards or money for a wedding gift?
My fiance and I are moving across the country two weeks after the wedding. The things we need, we already have, and we would not be able to move a ton of gifts even it if was something useful. We really prefer that we get just gift cards or cash as wedding gifts, but I was afraid we might offend people by asking for this Also, I don't want people to feel as if they have to give more than they were planning on spending if they are a thrifty person that is good at finding bargains.Thanks everyone who gave input. I should have extended the question a little. I know that I should not " ask" for gifts of any sort, because they are not necessary. I do know, however, that most of our guests are family and will want to do something for us. I also knew that it is considered rude to most to just ask for money, but I'm a little modern and believe that gifts shouldn't be given unless its truly heartfelt or something that you need. I do not expect gifts at all, but already have my moving details figured out and it leaves almost zero room for new things. I cannot give a new address quite yet, because we are still deciding between two places, or I would add that info onto a registry. Thank you for all of the positive answers, I will take those things into consideration

Ok. I sent Alice a wedding gift a check for $200 in the mail to her 6 years after her wedding. I told her to call me or send a note that she got it, and she NEVER did. Now, I called her up and left her 2 messages to call me.....I sent another check for $200 and still no answer.......and the 2nd check is NOT cashed and she is not responding.What could be wrong with her? I am so upset...........These are the correct address and phone number.I sent the checks before Christmas, and in February recentlyActually, it was $400 altogether. I mean I know it was long ago, but I still sent it. I did call her but no response.

Can I give bedsheets as a wedding gift to my brother and his fiance'?
I'm seriously considering a Ralph Lauren 600 Thread Count Sateen Sheet King sized set in white color and having their married initials embroidered in a champagne color. I'd include a note that says, " May all your dreams together come true." Brilliant or creepy?I don't know their bedroom color and I don't know what size their bed is although I know it's at least a Queen.Thoughts? Suggestions?Thanks I've heard of giving sheets as wedding gifts but that if doing so that one should go up to a ridiculously high thread count, like 1200 1500TC. But, these are embroidered and will have the RL name behind them they'll be pricey as it is. Will that make up for the fact they are only 600TC?
