My FH and I have lived together for several years and really don't need more stuff. We have everything we need to make our home what we want, and we are actively trying to simplify what we own, not add to our collection of stuff. I know some people think its really impersonal to give cash gifts and really like giving physical gifts, but we'd much prefer cash or even no gift at all as opposed to receiving items we don't need and that will just take up space in our home.
Is it okay to not have a registry at all and leave it off our wedding website? I don't know what to do if someone asks us what we want, because I know asking for money is really tacky (even though it is what would be the most helpful to us, as we are spending a lot on our wedding to make it a fantastic experience for our guests). How can I politely guide our guests towards just enjoying our wedding with us, or gifting us cash we can actually use and not material things we don't need, without seeming too grabby about it?
