| Since Tom and Jane have many items for their home, it can be difficult to choose something for them. If you need suggestions, please let me know.For you, find out what they would like - otherwise it's up to the givers to determine without too much influence from you. |

| It is rude to state specifically what the bridal couple wants. That's like looking a gift horse in mouth.If someone should ask then they might suggest a favorite restaurant or club or kind of wine etc.Gifts can be given thanks for and then returned to the store to get credit. |

| That's why I like to recommend that couples register . . . you can register for SO MANY things & places these days. Do they like the outdoors? Register at REI. It really helps folks who don't know what to get them.(I hope someone knows what you are looking for though, I have some friends who are getting married who don't need anything too!) |

| I think you could simply state that the couple has the usual home accoutrement's and is not registering. I hope someday that bridal showers become extinct since that is the usual situation nowadays. One STILL has to buy a wedding gift too so it is quite redundant and excessive. In fact, lets begin a movement against bridal showers. Still keep the baby showers though only for firstborn |

| The invitation should not list their registry - a gift is not a requisite for attending any event, even a shower. The guest should contact you if they have questions about what to give. "Please contact hostess Jane Smith with any questions." Then you can tell them off the record. |

| Tell people to instead donate to a certain charity in honor of the couple's marriage. There are many non-profit charities out there that would be grateful for the donation.Or have them register and then return it and get something they really want. Nobody can already have everything they want. Unless they are super rich. It is really rude to write what they don't want. Just have them register at a place that they want stuff. Like the person before me said, REI or another sporting goods store if they like that stuff.If I were them I would register at a gas station! Have people buy them gas cards! LOL!!!! |
