[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I've also seen "no gifts necessary" which I think is better phrasing but still awkward. I wish there were a better way to say "it's really up to you if you want to bring a gift - if you know my kid well and are excited to bring something, great we welcome it. But no expectation that you need to."[/quote] "No gifts necessary" is absolutely awful. It's just as ambiguous as "Gifts optional" but it doesn't sound as rude. I wish people throwing the party would be straight forward while still following appropriate etiquette: either write "No gifts please" OR write nothing at all (which means bring a gift, although gift giving is always optional).[/quote]
