Recently there has been a lot of questions in regards to gifts, or the saying that is used over and over, "we don't need anything". In my thinking if the couple doesn't need anything and says that, why are so many brides asking about and worried about showers and gifts?
I didn't need anything and didn't want anything. When it was asked about registry, we said we don't need anything. We also had it spread word of mouth that anything that was recieved would be donated to the Hope Lodge. It worked, not one gift recieved. When I attend a wedding and the couple says "we don't need anything", I in return do the same, respect the couples wishes and give a lovely card and no gift. I am now wondering more and more if it is honestly meant that they don't need anything or just a ploy to sound selfless and they actually want just cash.
So what do you all think?
