This is just a random sort of question more targeted towards the brides on here that have already had their weddings but welcoming all thoughts.
My FH and I are not doing a registry. We don’t like them and we feel that it’s extremely rude, however this is a very personal opinion and we don’t dis anyone for having a registry at all, and we do not get offended if we attend a wedding that has one, it’s just not our thing. We were initially going to collect whatever money we received from guests and donate it, but we were advised not only by people on here, but my FH‘s aunt and a few other family members that some people get offended when couples do this.
My main question is for people that have already had their weddings, did you feel like you were expecting more money and gifts from people or did you get a lot less than you planned on?
Also if you did do a registry, did you get most of the stuff on your registry or did people just give you cards with money in it instead?
