My fiance is in the military and we are being moved to Nevada from New Hampshire in October. Our shower is the weekend before we leave. We are buying a house off base once we arrive. Since we have no clue about our new home, how do we ask for gift certificates or money instead of gifts on our invitations?

Sign uo for a gift registry which would include a few typical household items you might need (you are going to surely have a few who absolutely have to select, wrap and bring a gift to your shower) and some varying denominations of gift certificates too so that it does not appear as though you are asking for money. Provide the hostess of the bridal shower with your gift registry information so she can include it inside of the bridal shower invitation but please, do not include the registry with the wedding invitation.
If you end up receiving gifts you have no use for either return them to the store or donate them to charity. But, always send a thank you nore to the guest. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
