Bridal Shower for an Abroad Bride

Beth, on January 7, 2017 at 5:53 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 2

My sister and her fiance live in Portugal for the time being. They are over there for his job for 2 years and will be back 6 months after her shower/4 months after their wedding. Wedding is also in Portugal. They are both world travelers and are inviting people from all over the world.

I am planning the shower in Connecticut where both are from. My question is, in the shower invite (separate card for registry info) how do I word 'if you cant make it but want to send a gift, send it to my address' (since they're renting out their home while they're away)? I also have to some how send this via eVite to other countries.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.

    Also make sure that wherever your sister is registering has your address as the shipping address. Most stores don't even require the buyer to enter the bride and grooms info.

    If she's registered - she can set up the delivery address to be your house. We have everything delivered to my parents' house since we're moving back to the area after the wedding and they have much more storage space (even though it's only a 5 hour drive away - and not a few flights away)
