Registry Vent

Posted by Future Mrs H

I am just gonna add my 2 cents in here.

If you didnt want these items and thought they were cheap why did you register for them???????

THANK YOU...THIS IS WHAT I'VE BEEN SAYING ALL ALONG!!

Again, she wants the potato peeler.... attached to a $300 check.

I agree with the girls who said they are having a wedding to celebrate one of the most important moments in your life with family and friends that you love. It's not about the gift.

The main thing I dont get about the OP is you didnt get the gifts yet. This could be for a shower, from someone not coming, a gift plus money, or a bunch of little gifts. How can you complain about a gift before you even get it? How can you complain about getting a gift that YOU added on your registry so you obviously want/need it. That's the only thing that doesn't make sense.

Oh man, I just quickly read through this, but geez, can't a girl vent without people jumping down her throat????

I am not trying to jump on the bandwagon here BUT clearly in the following post it states that 'FH warned me' that this would happen. If you knew and you don't want it to happen then, why? Why? Would you set yourself up for this situation and then complain.

Only if they're 4 years old.

Am I the only one that finds this thread so wrong?

You are getting married to the love of your life and that is all that matters! HOWEVER, we ALL decided to have a big party and all the wedding perks that come along with it and u shuld know not to expect money from every1.

Be lucky that they will even show up on your wedding day b/c frankly u lose out both ways..if they dont show up, u already lost on their plate $.
So **** it and move on!


I don't see why I should have to get married in city hall because I don't feel that people NEED to give me presents. First of all, both FH and I are religious so we want to have a ceremony that reflects that. SECOND of all, we wanted to have a party NOT because we wanted presents and money, but because we want to celebrate the happiest day of our lives with the people who matter to us the most.

The gifts are perks, NOT a requirement, and to b!tch that someone didn't give you enough is just plain bratty, spoiled, selfish and missing the point entirely.

ITA...... I thought this was the whole point of getting married. I don't have any expectations of receiving a gifts, would it be nice? yes, but it's not right to pissed at people because they didn't give you money. What if they can't afford it? I invited people because I want them to share that special day with us, not for a donation. JMO
