If you receive gifts off of your registry to your home, can you open them? I don't know when my shower is and my gf sent me a couple of gifts. She said I wasn't suppose to open them until my shower. But if the shower is a surprise I just keep the gifts in my home? Very confused and kinda made me feel bad that I opened them
That's a good question! Maybe you can give them to a family member or someone in the bridal party to hold onto to bring the day of?
I've opened gifts that were sent to my house from the registry. I thought it would be rude if the person thought I opened it and didn't get a thank you. But if they specifically told you not to open it, I guess that is a different story. Some friend of my moms who is attending the shower accidentally sent her gifts to my house instead of hers, and I opened them already, oops!

Psh I'd open them, she should have told you as soon as she ordered them not to open them! Enjoy your gifts and don't feel bad!

I don't think I would be able to restrain myself from opening them.
When I registered the girl told me I should put down a different address for those who are going to have the gifts shipped, so I used my FMIL's address this way there is no temptation :)
I'd bring the unopened boxes to the shower and open them at the same time you p[em gifts from people at the shower and just announce the person's name and that they couldn't be there that day.
I wouldn't be able to resist the temptation either!
I had all gifts shipped to my parents house and my mom brought all gifts to the shower for me to open there. Technically you aren't supposed to open them till the shower. My mom kept them hidden from me haha.
I had things sent to my mother's house so I wouldn't item them. I wanted to open them at my shower. Being it to some ones house for them to bring to the shower for u if u want.....
