Is it rude to put your gift registration cards in your wedding invitations?
we registered for our wedding at Target, and they gave us a bunch of these little cards to let our guests know where we our registered at. A couple people have said that it is rude to put these cards in our wedding invitations, what do you think?
Yes! Its a huge no no for wedding etiquette, its considered extremely tacky.
Gifts or registry information should only be mentioned on the bridal/wedding SHOWER invitations.
Bridal Shower: The bridal shower is a gift giving event and is designated to "shower" the honoree with gifts of items the will need to establish their new home together. So that your guests will know what you need and/or want this is why you include the registry information in this invitation.
Wedding Reception: Is a celebration of your marriage/vow exchange. This is not a gift grab event. No couple should expect gifts for their wedding reception, its completely optional to your guests. While most of your guests will bring a gift to the reception by sending them the registry information implies that you are expecting or mandating gifts from all of your guests.
For the wedding, registry information is done by word of mouth only. By your bridesmaids, parents, siblings, etc. Most people will ask around for what you need or want.
Another thing on bridal shower etiquette, is that its considered tacky to have a bridal shower if you've previously been married or already live with your future spouse. The bridal shower is to "establish" a home, if you've been married before or live with your future spouse already you should already be established with the things your home needs. Though - I have gone to bridal showers for first time brides who live with their fiance and let the faux pas slide, since they may not know proper etiquette and believe the bridal shower to just be a traditional must have.
Good luck and Congrats!
