Re: Gifts at the reception

i dont think so. for many reasons
--why waste time opening gifts and not dancing
--how boring is it to open gifts when a majority of them ar money and checks?
--its entirely too many gifts..you;d be there forever

I totally agree... Very TACKY. I'm sure when your guests pick out a gift, they are not thinking everyone invited will see what they purchased. Plus, who wants to waste precious time with their friends and family on opening gifts? I say save it for when you get home!
