[QUOTE="Fran, post: 117695, member: 3"] I grew up in a community where anything given was appreciated but most young couples wanted money. It was never requested. The gifts usually stacked 1/2 and 1/2. For many it is more in keeping with their budget to buy a nice gift because the money would seem miserly. We did do a money dance where the men get a shot of whiskey(how antiquated is this?) and the girl's got a piece of wedding cake to put under their pillows to dream on. I think that is growing out of favor. Remember weddings are not supposed to be money making events but a celebration. Asking for cash gifts is a no no from everywhere I have lived. She doesn't have to register. If anyone asks, tell them anything will do or have some suggestions ready. Tell them the couple are hoping to move out soon and any help would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
