As we meet with couples designing their wedding invitations, we hear so many great stories. Love at first sight, or after a first marriage gone wrong. Every couple has their own story.
Many of our couples are requesting that people do NOT buy them any wedding gifts. Why? Maybe it is a second marriage. Maybe one or both of them already has an established household. Whatever the reason, you need to let your feelings be known in an appropriate manner.
Our favorite wording is: "Your presence is the only gift desired."
If you want, you can also ask that donations be made to your favorite charity. You can list the charity, enclose a donation envelope or even ask them to bring a check to the reception. After all, if you don't need another toaster or blender - it is better to have your family and friends make a donation to the local food bank, animal shelter or other great cause.
