[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is a registry okay? Isn't is basically saying, "we'd like these items as gifts, if you are so inclined?" Why is it not okay to say, "we'd prefer cash as a gift, if you are so inclined?" [b]If people don't want to give a gift, that's fine, and I might appreciate that more than the 3 waffle makers and crystal vases, and other nonsense that I don't need.[/b] [/quote]

Doesn't a registry solve that problem?

It would if people bothered to follow the registry.  We got several gifts that weren't on the registry.  I wouldn't be surprised if a couple had been re-gifted to us.  [/quote]

This. Some people are going to do what they're going to do. All of the hand wringing over this is beyond stupid. If you give a crap about the couple, why does it matter what they say in their invitation? Im not surprised to see so many of you just looking for a reason to get your panties in a bunch. If you care about them, give a gift they would like, which is probably what they asked for, and if the wording on the invitation is more important than your affection for the couple, save them the headache and don't go.
