I’m now рlοttіng οn a reception fοr thе wedding аnd nοt sure аbουt asking guests fοr gifts. I don’t want tο gο through thе process οf deciding a gift registry fοr guests tο bυу gifts аnd thеn returning thе gifts nοt meeting mу needs. I’d prefer receiving monetary gifts $$$. It’s simpler. Iѕ thіѕ something etiquette acceptable? Hοw dο I рlасе іt οn thе invitation οr lеt mу guests know thаt thеу don’t need tο bυу gifts, instead thеу саn give mе thе cash?

I reckon its inapporipate to make people give cash…..let each person give what he or she is comfortable giving in.
Don’t place anything stating cash preferred – that is tacky. If you don’t list any place you are registered — folks will most likely give cash or gift cards. Congrats.
Register for a few things, but also question for some gift cards, noit cash. Say that You need gift cardds more than actuall gifts because you don’t really have need for the things they might want to get you. You might also want to metion that they can get whatever they feel comfortable giving you, because they may not have a lot of money right now. Don’t forget everyone wants money and right now everyone seems to need it.
Hope this Helps. =)
You can’t place that on an invite. You will look so terrible and frankly if I got an invite with that on it I wouldn’t even show up or send a gift of any kind….your messed up.
It is never acceptable etiquette to question for cash. People don’t HAVE to give you anything at all if they don’t want to.
And please don’t be one of those brides who doesn’t write thank you notes either. That’s extremely rude too.
Dont mention gifts at all if you just want money. Most people would be uncomfortable showing up without something so they might get you a card and some cash. But to tell anyone you prefer cash over a gift would be infinitely tacky and rude.
it’s very rude to say i only want cash!
but you can have an option of contribute to the honeymoon by sending money to this account have someone at the travel agency or a bank to host this there for they just have a check to send they don’t even have to get a card! or some sort of fund! and that you can place inplace of a registry!!
Guests know they don’t NEED to give you gifts. They can choose to give you gifts. You may as well just register somewhere. Asking for cash is very rude. You should be grateful for whatever you get.
It is tacky and rude to question for monetary gifts. And completely unacceptable to place on an invitation. If you do that, people will be talking about your lack of taste for many years. And your husbands family will be mortified! Just register at a couple of places so you have chosen the gift, and you may want to try an on-line registry.
Do not mention anything about gifts on the invitation. It’s just not the place for such things. If people question you about your preferences, you can tell them.
Wow that would be really inappropriate and unclassy if you were to really place that on the invitation. Sure, most couples would prefer monetary gifts over a toaster but you should let your gifts choose for themselves what they want to get you.
