Bridal Shower and Monetary Gifts

There is no way to do this without being tacky. Don't have a shower if you don't want gifts, and if you only want money for your wedding presents, just don't do a registry.

You can't ask for money without being tacky. Register for towel upgrades ECT. If you make a small registry people will get the hint and give you money for gift cards. Edit Lmao OliviaP!!

Hi Sara. Please take a moment to look around at other posts. This has been asked multiple times.

You DO NOT ask for money on the invitations.

Set up a registry, but limit the number of items you ask for. There's always something you can upgrade (towels, dishes etc)

Guest will see the registry is small, or already all purchased and pick up on the que to give cash

There is no polite way to ask for money, it's always tacky. WW, please improve the search function, this topic literally come up 3-4 times a day, I'm starting to feel like this:

No, you don't ask for money

Tamara- read the new user sticky. You can't tell others how to post. She asked how to do it without sounding tacky, and people are giving responses that are helpful so she doesn't sound tacky to her guests.

ETA- now that I read what you added to your post you also can't name call and say "old ass middle aged mean girls" it's against the CGs as well. If you would read the new user sticky like your supposed to then you would know that. Name calling and telling others how to post are against CGs, but you don't have to censor your cursing since that is allowed.

You don't. If you have a shower, it's for physical gifts. If you want money, don't have a registry and don't have a shower. Have a bridal luncheon, have a girls' night out, but a shower implies gifts.

The only rude person here is you with your idea of monetary gifts.

If you have to question if it is tacky, it's tacky.

Thx, Mariah will do!

Bridal showers are meant for gifts for your home. If you don't want gifts, don't have a shower.

Do not ask for money. It's rude.

Tamara- that's quite ageist of you. People comment on these threads in an attempt to help people from doing some really foolish/tacky things at their engagement parties, bridal showers, bachelorette parties, weddings and so on.

@ Tamara Soo you say "Be positive" and then go on to call everyone "Old a** middle aged mean girls". Seriously? Practice what you preach.

Can you register at Home Depot maybe? I'm sure you need supplies for the remodel.

The person who post did not call anyone rude and I was not thinking of that idea, but don't mind if someone does

.

Sorry all you double rings blur together. It's still rude as fuck to ask for money and guarantees that you are going to get a physical gift anyway.

Tamara- people are getting the both of you confused because neither one of you read the new user sticky to change your avatar so we wouldn't know the difference.

DONT.FUCKING.DO.THIS!!

Yelling was necessary.

CJ- I have been and as I stated I definitely can be a big B. Looking through these forums can bring the B out of anyone. I'd be scared to post to get any help on here.

I went to a wedding reception where on the registry they had scanned target gift cards as an option for a gift, is that considered rude??
