[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am from the South and went to legit etiquette school during the summers. It was always taught to us as very rude to dictate what your guests do. So telling them or asking them what to do regarding gifts was a huge no no. So I always follow that because it feels off to me not to. However, I don't mind when others put it on the invite, I just choose not to. [/quote] I am from California and went to a legit etiquette school and we were taught that people appreciate information so if you don't want gifts you may say that. You may NOT dictate what to do about a gift (i.e. bring something to donate to charity). That is rude. But saying no gifts is not. I asked Carolyn Hax what she thought of this once and she agreed. Not that's she's Emily Post but I thought it was interesting.[/quote]
