One of the biggest “no-no” on a wedding invitation is asking for gifts - the only worse thing you can do, is to ask for money. These days this etiquette seem to have been discarded completely. I’ve received quite a few wedding invites lately, and all of them asked for money, instead of gifts.

Personally it would make me extremely uncomfortable asking for anything whatsoever on my wedding invitation, which is why we didn’t do it. It feels asif you’re inviting the guests, but with a hidden agenda?

Surely everyone knows that they’re welcome to give a gift if they want, but putting that smack in the middle of your wedding invite is just a bit too forward for me. Its like asking your guests an entrance fee?

We’ve only invited people who we really WANT to attend our wedding, and we didn’t invite them because we thought they’d give us nice prezzies! Instead we look forward to spending this incredibly special day with the people who we love. Our friends, and our family. Because we really want them there for their company.
