No Gifts!

October 11th, 2008

My husband and I will be having a big party to celebrate our 10th anniversary. One of our friends suggested we register at a store to give people gift suggestions. But I kind of feel leery about this since really all I want to do is have a party, not make people feel like they should bring us something.

I know that on a wedding invitation it’s a no-no to put anything about gifts, but would it be okay to say something along the lines of “your presence is the only present we request” on our anniversary party invites?

(1) RESPONSES to No Gifts!

Yes, I think it is not only socially acceptable, but highly commendable of you to make a statement like that on your invitation or announcement! I have received invites on numerous occasions, from very affluent people in the community, that have made reference to the fact that they would prefer no gifts, or that our presence is all the gift they require. Go for it, and don’t look back. Hope your celebration is a magnificent success.
