Receiving gifts will be an exciting part of your wedding.
You might get that state-of-the-art cappuccino maker you’ve
always wanted, the dinnerware you’ll need when inviting people
over or maybe you’ll even get skis for your honeymoon!
Many couples choose to register for gifts at bridal registries,
either at stores or special online bridal registries. This
ensures there is no duplication of gifts and that you will
get what you really want. If you’re not comfortable with specifically
asking for gifts, that’s ok too. Just bear in mind that bridal
registries are very common these days and are generally not
seen as being of bad taste.
Once you’ve received your wedding
gifts, make sure to send thank-you-cards.
You
should send them out no later than three
months after the wedding. If you receive
any gifts before the wedding send the
thank-you-cards no later than two weeks
after you get the gifts.
It’s not all
about receiving gifts, though. It’s common
courtesy to give gifts to
your wedding party, both sets of parents
and any other helpers. It doesn’t have
to be anything expensive- just something
to show your appreciation for all their
help.
