[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No it’s not tacky but agree with your mil re: registering for reasonably priced items if you’re going to register. ( also, tacky would be declining a shower from the riff raff because they might make unwise decisions and spend too much on onesies.) [/quote] People can wish you well even if you are rich. Agree with just putting $50 or less items on the registry and use judgment. Don't register for the $50 vinyl windscreen that goes on the $800 stroller. Ask people to fill out a card with their top tips on parenting. That can be a party game, too. To do them on the spot then read aloud. Strive to make the party personal, loving, and fun. I've never been to a shower that seemed like a cash grab. I know all kinds of people. A shower is really a community celebration. We are a long way from our village days but the value of these traditions is still there buried under all the commercialism.[/quote]
