|
|
| We have received serving pieces as shower and early wedding gifts. We are hosting the reception at home immediately after the ceremony. Is it acceptable to use the serving pieces for the food we will be serving? |

| I don't see why not. It would be nice for the people who gave them to you to see that you are making good use of their gift, and that you like what they got you. |

| Sure. Why not? People will be glad to know you liked them enough to use them at your wedding. |

| Sure i think it's fine. It would be a good idea to make sure those people that sent you those presents get a thank you card and you can also say something like...it's perfect i love it so much that we can't wait to use it so we are planning to use it at the reception...something like that.I'd rather see the presents i bought for a couple being put to use. |

| I see no problem with you using this at your wedding. If anything the people who gave the gift will probably be pleasently surprised that you choose to use it at your wedding. Happy planning! |

| Absolutely, and even better if the giver is going to be there, what better way is there to find out that somebody really did like the gift you gave them, because they are using it!And you have the opportunity to point them out to your guests, and show them off. What a nice way to say thanks! |

| Hi and congratulations!Of course! Not only is it acceptable....I'm sure those that gave them to you (if they are at the wedding), will be flattered. Yes, go ahead and use them. |
