Don't need 'stuff' for wedding gifts.

Please don't use the poem. Simply don't register and don't have a shower. People will get the hint

I don't like the poem either. It's just not polite to come out and say you want cash. The best thing to do is to have your close relatives or friends spread the word for you. Register at a store you like for some things so that you can return the items later and get store credit.

Yeah the poem seems strange. just dont register for much. and definitely do not put it in your invitation

The poem is..to be honest, terrible. I'm not sure which is worse: Guests thinking it was copied from somewhere, or guests thinking you wrote an actual poem asking for money My FW are in the same situation where we've been living together for years and we're also moving out of state immediately after the wedding. No need to rent another UHaul to transport three new blenders, thank you! However we really want to go to Disney World for our honeymoon. We found the wonderful world of online/honeymoon registries! I recommend them wholeheartedly. They've made one to suit every situation, I promise. And for the older generations without paypal or whatever else, they'll usually bring out the checkbook. People don't enjoy handing out cash unless they know what they're buying. With online registries you make smaller budgets for specific things. (i.e. hot tub, down payment on car).

Sorry but the poem is tacky. I also don't need anything but I wouldn't grey any gifts from certain people if I didn't have a small registry. People are sentimental and they want you to think of them over the years when you see their gift. As much as you want cash, you will only get gifts from certain people so my advice is the same, just set up a small registry or you'll end up with five wind chimes.
