HotHands

I need to know the proper etiquette for requesting money for the honeymoon on the invitations, instead of registeries.  We already have everything and were hoping on a proper way to ask for cash instead.

You haven't lurked, have you?

1. You don't put registries on invitations so you don't put that on there either.

2. Asking for cash for the honeymoon is telling people exactly how to spend their money, plus, it's kind of weird for people when they know they're financing the scenery for your *ahem* consummation.

Thanks for posting though, it's been dead around here and I need something to read.

This is an oxymoron. There is no proper etiquette for requesting money. On the invitations, no less. You're not supposed to do any of these things.

HotHands?

Are those filled with money GG? There's an idea...

ggmae

Oooh, they could be Beatles! Good call!

Have your family spread the word. Nothing in the invites. 

FYI: Cash Showers or "Greenback" Showers or whatever they are called are considered VERY rude. Have a small registry if you are going to have a shower.

What does "hot hands" have to do with this post?
OP-Putting any registry info on invitations is gift grabby.  Asking for money is just rude!

There is no proper way.

wtf is up with the subject?

EmmaBride2B

Her hands are so grabby she's working up a sweat? I have no idea, the subject makes no sense.

BTW, think about it, how many people are out of work right now, and you have the NADS to beg them to pay for your vacation??  SUPER.
