We've lived together 13 years & are getting married. I don't think wedding gifts are appropriate. Am I wrong? - wedding gifts for people who live together
I think because we have lived together for many years and have a son and a house together, wedding gifts would be inappropriate. My mother does not agree. I have no idea what etiquite are right here. If I'm not mistaken, and wedding gifts are not appropriate, how should I word the invitations so guests know not to bring gifts? Thank you!

Wedding Gifts For People Who Live Together We've Lived Together 13 Years & Are Getting Married. I Don't Think Wedding Gifts Are Appropriate. Am I Wrong?

We, who sit together only 5 years, but otherwise we were in the same boat you are. We live together and have a son, he was really a need for a more traditional wedding gifts such as China or beds. Like you, we went to marriage (it was the 18th of August) and we prepare for our reception, the 15th this month.
Given all this, we thought it distasteful to sign up, mainly because we felt like it would be impolite to ask people to give us a gift for a wedding that was not present. We were not in this for the gifts when he had long since married and had a great big wedding, instead of a weekend with 30 people (some of which are actually even invited, I did not realized that she would be there until at the award ceremony will be presented!).
But it is also impolite to refuse a gift from someone who wants to give.
If you are not thinking of a gift that will be probably a gift card or control card, and hand, aT reception. If you are unable to digest the idea that even the mother's voice, like that instead of gifts, a donation in his name to a charitable organization. Does your mother or spreading the word of someone else, because it impolite to do himself, and certainly can not say anything about the calls (to dictate something related to what you can offer as a present day) is considered poor.
Good luck, congratulations, and I hope this helps!
I do not think it appropriate gifts, but if you think is funny (because you already have) tons of material, you can ask your guests to donate to her favorite charity, instead of a gift.
put in the invitation letter .........
We ask ourselves, if you bring a gift, a ...... Disposable camera to capture the moment.
I am very happy for you !!!!!!!!!!! Hoooray! what a generous person and you're beautiful. Maybe your mother knows that the people I love you and we look forward to demonstrating a gift for your wedding. This is one reason that probably will not mention the gifts in your invitation.
No recourse to the former application is to give gifts as follows:
Stacy and John
Request the honor of your presence
to a dinner-dance reception celebrating their recent marriage
Saturday, 5 September 2007
in
Oakdale Country Club
4 Oakdale Drive
Oakdale, Minnesota
their presence is only for the application
or
We ask that your presence is present to us
or
Your presence is your gift
I've seen, especially for birthdays 40 and then, but in reality people do not tend to follow this request. because they love you.
If you are mistaken. Gifts are appropriate for the occasion. But let's say, instead donations may be. Godbless
Etiquite really no longer appropriate today. Even in bad English. "We lived together in love and a home for year, and we ask you to us in celebrating the gifts ... No advertising, no children, no shirt, no service.
No, you're right. However, you can suggest people give to a charity of his choice, but.

After 13 years I am sure you all of the material .. Can request to allocate funds for a family holiday .. my friend had made donations to the shelter of your name ..
Remind him gently to his mother that everything you have .. I want to .. the things that would never be used ..
Suffice it to say:
"The donations will be donated to charity \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ \\ u0026lt; write here>" and expect that a lot of money.
One of my friends was in the same situation, and that's basically what he was in the invitation. He said it was 95% of controls (with the exception of what you have all the sponsors, we knew we had a BB-Q ... lol.)
Then do whatever you want with the money.
Well, I could save you alittle note calls, we request a donation in his honor for a good cause! Since you all have everything you need.
It is vital for the customer in order to give a gift. No need to mention anything about gifts to ... and should not really. According to the label the gifts are not necessary when visiting a wedding.
Yes, I agree with what the girl said the first ..
Did you have a gift (I did not ask how my friend, have lived together for 2 years .. and all that sort of thing's)
But we do not know what brings people together

Everything depends on your guests the opportunity to give, gifts of marriage or not. If they do, accept and thank you for your consideration. If you feel that you should come to witness their marriage and would rather not be a gift to send quite well. But it is certainly wrong, in your wedding invitation a statement that they do not expect wedding gifts are. Let your choice of guests.
"We are very fortunate to already have everything we need to have to celebrate with us is gift enough to feel - please no obligation, please call us anything,"
or something that people know realize that does not necessarily make a gift, but also lets you if they want a gift that they are more than welcome.
You can only say that because all you need is not necessary for the guests to other gifts that your good wishes and congratulations as they share their joy to come.
Or you can request that a donation in your name it is done one thing, instead of traditional gifts
