I’m curious, did most of your guests purchase gifts off your registry (if you had one) or did most people buy you random things not on the registry? FH and I registered at Crate and Barrel a few years ago for our housewarming party (I know that seems untraditional, but apparently a lot of people are doing it now) and there were so many people who ignored it and showed up with random gifts. I have a feeling the same thing will happen for our wedding. I hope it doesn’t come off the wrong way, but I think it’s frustrating when you spend a lot of time putting thought into your registry and what you want/could use to have, and people completely disregard it and gift you things you will NEVER use. What’s your opinion on this? Did people stick to your registry for gifts, or were most not off your registry? I’m thankful for whatever gifts we do receive, but I feel terrible being gifted things I know we will never need or use.
