[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Omg this is the RUDEST thing I have ever heard!! How passive aggressive of them. No, you were no supposed to send a card and they should not be soliciting gifts. I would seriously reconsider my relationship with these people. [/quote]

Parents should not be involved in the card contents.  Guests will ask the couple if a check didn't clear months  later. Ignore it or reply briefly to the couple via a call, text, or email “Lovely wedding.  MOB asked about a card and we sent a gift, Le Creuset whatever,  listed on the registry. Best wishes, blah and blah."

Physical gift items on or off a registry can be not trackable as to which guest sent it - ie buy a registry item from another vendor.  Sometimes a gift message is enclosed but if it's shipped from the manufacturer that is not always enclosed.  Stuff could either be more gifts from people for whom you already have listed a gift or people who you don't have anything listed.  2 columns - shower and wedding.

Decades of NY through DC weddings in our experience.  Various ethnic backgrounds etc.  Venues still designate spots for wrapped gifts in 2022.  [/quote]
