I am pretty sure I will not be opening any registries because my fiancé and myself have lived on our own for years and have all the housewares items we need.
I have a question for others who have decided against having any registries. Did this work well for you? Did you received mostly cash gifts, or a lot of random housewares items? How many guests complained or were confused?
As with many couples, we would prefer cash gifts but realize it is rude to ask for that outright, BUT leaving it totally up to chance also makes me nervous.
Thanks for your insight!
