we're not doing anything

i would prefer people to give the envelopes to me/FH or my mom/dad directly

You get alot of cards, I would get something to hold all of them. At least a card bag.

I'm still debating what I want to use. I'm not doing the photocube becuase I don't have a creative bone in my body so I'll have to buy something.

We are using a mailbox custom painted with our wedding colors. And we're putting our name and wedding date on the top of it, also.

Oh, that sounds so cute. I was thinking about doing a card box, but you may have just changed my mind. Thanks - gotta love LIW :)

I'm also not using anything.

No offense b/c I know 98% of the brides on this site use something - but I just think it's kind of rude. IMO it gives off the impression that you don't want people coming up to you to say hello and congratulate you - 'just drop money in box please' - my mother would be horrified if I had one. I also don't trust anyone and would not just leave my envelopes sitting out in a box all night. I've heard horror stories about waiters,etc stealing envelopes. My mom's best friend is in charge of all our envelopes for the night - we'll just give them to her as we get them and she'll have them in a bag.
