How to say "No Gifts" properly in wedding invite? - things to say in a wedding card
My friend and I in our our late 20s. Neither are married and we have both as individuals here, and we have now lived for 2 years together has.
We do not want gifts for our wedding. Things that we do not want the people buy into the list of "must" for us, since we already have a house, does not need a mixer or a matching set of plates design.
How can we properly account for the people you invite? We know that we are presumptuous to assume that "" should, gifts, and we deny it, but we think its worse, a detailed list of what we want to create.
We simply do not need to buy something that people in general, for a wedding. Is there a way to do it tactfully?
Thank you!

Never mention gifts on the invitations, to say, "we do not want." As you mentioned, it is presumed that they would receive a gift.
ReplyDeleteI suggest you select a charity for you and your friend (if you do not, then say, and by mutual agreement within one or two). Let your parents and teachers know that when someone asks where you are or what you want for your wedding, you do not say anything, but if you really want to "give" something you can make a donation in their name to charity instead of a gift.
Try to think of something you have at heart ... If you have a relative who are affected by a disease you can lead an organization, research and / or maintenance of this disease. If you love animals, collect a shelter. If you love children, while the children of the hospital Jew's or a local charity dedicated to children who are victims of abuse or ill-will help in your area. With the poor economy and heavyWrite state budget, many companies are struggling to ... an amount of money is very popular, especially for small, local charities that advertise do not have the resources to for donations.
Yes, you have the right to give people and some people refuse to feel insulted. In order not to offend, to spread the word by mouth for the wedding and the whole family, coordinator, or whoever wants to hear: Your presence is a gift from us. Thank you for coming.
ReplyDeleteIn contrast to borrow money, you can use this text to the end of the central administration of the reception.
In small print at the bottom of the invitation to include a sentence like: "Your presence is the only gift requested. They will donate all the same. There is no way to stop them. You can choose a charity that you to spread the word and close the mouth, you do not really want that gift, but a donation to charity would be appreciated.
