Out of Town Shower Gifts

kmurk

    I'm originally from PA and moved to FL not too long ago. I'm having a PA shower for friends and family there. Does anyone have any suggestions about how to transport gifts back home? I feel like it's rude to mandate what gifts guests bring to the shower (ie. only gift cards, or light gifts), but I can't afford to spend tons on shipping everything back down to FL. How have others handled this issue?

I'm in the same situation.  Since I'm flying in for my shower, I'm pretty sure I won't be able to fly much back with me.  I've actually bribed my mom and my sister to take a road trip after our wedding to bring our gifts back.  Granted, its only a seven hour drive rather than a two day drive...  but would it be possible to bribe someone you know to drive the stuff down to Florida?
