Couples Shower Wording for Invites

If you aren't registering you don't have a shower. And as an adult you should pay for your own vacation.

What are you expecting people to do at your shower if you don't have a registry? The whole point of a shower is to "shower" you with physical gifts.

Don't make a honeymoon registry. Just don't have a registry, don't have a shower, and most people will give you cash as a gift at the wedding anyway.

1. Don't throw your own shower

2. If someone DOES offer to throw you a shower, the point is to "shower" the bride with gifts, so having no gifts doesn't make sense

3. Asking adults to help pay for another adult's vacation is icky

So basically a big fat nope to all of this.

It is rude to throw your own shower. The party you throw is your reception. You only get one. You do not throw a party in your own honor. If someone offers to throw you a shower and you accept you should register for physical gifts. Even if you only create a small registry guests will get the hint that you're more looking for cash which is perfectly fine. But you do not ask for cash or create a honeyfund.

This post is a whole bunch of no. You don't throw your own shower and you don't ask for people to pay for your honeymoon.

OH Deborah, good luck.

If you have everything you need, don't register and certainly don't tell people to give you $$. They are adults. They will figure it out.
