[quote=Anonymous]If couples register for something big, it is usually with the expectation that the family members, one side or the other, or both sides - will go in on it together. I have never seen a couple ask for a large gift with the expectation that any one person would by it. I did see a couple ask for a video camera, before they were common (before cell phones were common!) - because a parent was dying and they wanted to interview the parent in case the parent was not alive after the honeymoon. The parent had a remarkable and unusual story to tell. They thought, since they had multiple siblings on each side, that the siblings would go in together, and they did! I thought this was a nice story to share, because it has a happy ending. Not everyone expects big gifts - in fact, I bet they have everything they need in this day and age, OP. People that gripe about weddings usually had an awful one, themselves. Don't let them phase you, OP. [/quote]
