I have seen a lot of comments on these boards about how you cannot use a shower or wedding gift until after the wedding. I had never heard that before, but then again, I've never had a reason to know this stuff before!
Because everyone says it's accepted gift etiquette, I will definitely follow this rule/tradition. I'm just wondering where it comes from.
Is it because the gift is solely for your MARRIED life, not your engaged life? Is it simply bad luck?
Just curious!
