Gifts

CourtneyBrittain, on July 18, 2019 at 5:29 PM Posted in Registry 0 10
So our first wedding shower is tomorrow, and the second is next Sunday. According to the registry, no gifts have been purchased apart from the few we have received from people we know won’t be able to make it. Is this normal? I was planning on just having a basket for cards at the wedding but know I’m wondering if we will need a gift table...

    Huh, that is certainly interesting! I wonder if some of your guests decided to go into stores and purchase the gifts they saw on your registry, instead of buying them through your registry? You may want to have a table that could be used for gifts just in case!

    I think you'd be surprised how many people buy the gift on the way to the shower. Bed Bath and Beyond has a wrapping table specifically for this. My girlfriend was on her way to pick me up for a shower and when she was late I tracked her on GPS, she was at babies r us...haha. An area for gifts would be a good idea.

    Stop peeking! JK Smiley tongue

    I am worried about this too. My shower is this weekend as well and only a handful of people have bought from the registry. I imagine they are procrastinating and will buy something on their way to the shower. I'm trying to remain calm.Smiley atonished

    So for me I noticed the gifts didn't come in til closer to the wedding date. We had a lot on the wedding day too and even still got gifts after.

    That’s true, I forgot about that! Thankfully, the gift table could be a last minute addition.

    Interesting! I guess it’s a good thing we had the address for packages go to my parents in case anything comes while we are on our honeymoon.

    Mine is tomorrow and only one thing has been purchased from Amazon haha. I feel like they kinda just decided to get things that won't be on the registry, but I have no idea what to expect or to think honestly so I'm just gonna go with it!
