There is a new gifting trend taking millennial weddings by storm, instead of asking for kitchen equipment and things of that nature, engaged couples are asking their friends and family members to send them money through PayPal, Venmo, and even the CashApp. What are your thoughts?

I don't see a problem asking your guests for cash only. I know many engaged couple's who have done it and they are all "millennials".

Ha. No way. I only have Venmo because a girl I follow on Instagram brought something back for me from Tokyo Disney. If someone is nice enough to write us a check, we will go to the bank and cash them. Like normal people in the "olden days" lol.

I'm a millennial, not a fan of the "just send me money" via venmo or paypal. I wouldn't ever do it. I don't hate honeyfunds, but we didn't do one. At least on a honeyfund you are "gifting" an activity (or at least you hope the money goes towards that) rather than just sending money over an app. I have no problem with gifting money, I just don't think it should be asked outright.

None of my guests sent us money through apps but 95% of them did give us cards with money in it.
