The best way to ask for cash gifts?

Do not ask for money. Your guests may not say anything to your face, but they'll definitely talk behind your back about it. If you want cash, don't do a registry, they'll get the point.

@celia milton...I think you mean four times a day!! (Sigh)

I would say just don't use a registry or ask for anything. Cash is easiest so that's probably what you'll get!

Hmmm...

"You might think this is funny,

But all we want is money.

We're happy that you're here

But what we need is clear.

No pots or pans or towels

no Cuisinarts or trowels.

No spiffy sheets or rugs

And seriously, no mugs.

If you just adore us

You'll shove some Benji's toward us.

But one thing to rehash;

The bar's on you; bring cash.

Clearly, I am caught up on my real work...

Jesus Christ. Lurk, people! and quit asking for donations at your wedding.

Okay OP...

1. Never refer to gifts on an invitation

2. Never request cash from your guests

Rules # 1 & 2 of wedding etiquette.

Uh oh. Don't

Nope

Don't do it. If they want to give you cash they will.

Omgggggg ahahaaaaaaa this MUST be a joke to stir the pot!!!! How can any real person who isn't a "troll" not know this is rude?! And how can anyone who actually spends any time on here not know that this is asked a million times a day?! I really lol at this post. I can't with people.

I have the best way! Send people pre-filled out deposit slips so they can go directly to your bank and get you YOUR hard earned, well deserved cash immediately. If they don't give you the pre-determined amount or more, they get booted. Bitches better have your money.

Your wedding invitation should never ask for gifts of any kind or even hint at a registry. Your registry info should be passed along via word of mouth, on your website, or in a shower invite.

If you don't create a registry, you will get cash, you will get whatever gift someone wants you to have, or you will get nothing. You really should not attempt to dictate this.

Rude to ask for money (or gifts) in your invite -- or at all. And for what it's worth not everyone wants cash for their wedding. I'd much rather have something physical that someone picked out so when I look at it I can think of them.

EVERY time I see these posts or posts asking about no alcohol I always I think oh Lord poor woman doesn't know what she's gotten herself into by asking this question LOL. People always say lurk first but lurking doesn't seem possible when using the app. MAYBE if it was possible to search topics in the app people wouldn't ask these crazy questions lol

I feel like WTF Wednesday came early this week.

As stated by PP, don't ask for money. Don't have a registry and people will connect the dots and give you money.

Oh my goodness people. please google this type of thing and you will see plenty of threads about this exact topic. YOU DO NOT ASK FOR MONEY AS A GIFT!

You don't have a party at your house and ask them to bring cash. If you can't afford to host your party...don't have one. sigh.

Don't.

Just don't make a registry and people will get the hint.
