Brides are Talking
Can you ask for monetary gifts on your invitations?
This week in our Brides.com Forums brides are talking about whether it's okay to state that you prefer money as a gift on the wedding invitations. See what our brides are saying here:
Some brides believe it's not appropriate to list this information on the invitations. "Guests are not required to bring a gift. Telling them what you want makes it sounds as if the only reason you are inviting them is to get a gift," says Heidibride30.
Others feel that it's fine to mention the registry. "Not one of my guests is going to have an issue with putting registry information in the invitation. Why? Because everyone does it," says ChelsRae85.
And some brides think that while it's not okay to include this on the invitation, it can be listed on an enclosure. "I would include an enclosure with your invitations. I had one with our hotel information, shuttle information, and at the bottom one line that where the couple is registered," says PinkHippo.
