     cash as a shower gift  

I am a 77 year old grandmother and it is difficult to shop. I do not know my grandson's bride-to-be well and would like to give a money gift. I know this is not considered "polite" but considering the circumstances, would I be forgiven? Thanks!

Dear Valthom,

Money really isn't an appropriate shower gift. So, it may be best to do an online search for their registry. You could purchase something less expense from this for the shower.

Gift-less showers solve this problem. Hopefully more will choose them in the future.

Best wishes,

Perhaps there is a family member or friend who will also be attending this shower who could pick up the gift of your choice. I would ask around for help. Have an idea of what you'd like and supply the friend with the money and gift information.
