We are both getting married for the second time, I must say I have finally found the love of my life !
We are having about 40 people (family and a few friends). All we want is for them to attend and enjoy our special time and enjoy a great meal along with some dancing of course!
We both have well established homes and really need for nothing. How and when, if at all, do we say that we just want them to share the time and not worry or have the hassle of any gifts ?
Thanks,
One lucky Groom

Re: [GM] How and when to say we want no gifts?

Since it is not appropriate to write "no gifts please" on your wedding invitation the best way to approach this would be to "get the word out" through friends and family. Many will ask where you are registered and that is a wonderful opportunity to mention that you would prefer to receive no gifts. If you do end up receiving some gifts then graciously accept them, thank the guest and either find a use for the gift or donate it to a favorite charity.
