here's the breakdown. FI and i are havinga destination wedding and only inviting about 80 people. we're not going to have a shower (against FMIL's wishes). we are, however, going to do an at-home reception a month or two after the wedding (to keep FMIL some what happy).
do i need to register for gifts if i'm not having a shower? i don't want/expect any gifts. but if people want to give sometihng and there is no registry, i don't want them to think we didn't register because we're just looking for money (does that make sense?).
any adivce?
