We have roughly 4 items per person (quite a few are gift cards). Prices vary from $5-500. Our wedding is next month and we’ve already received half the items on our registry. We’ve marked some as “most wanted” within the registry app.

We received a couple gifts after we sent the save the date, a couple for the engagement party, a couple for holidays/birthdays, some at the shower.

Most places allow you to add items to a group gift fund. We did that for some of the pricier items.

that sounds like a really good idea!!

Do you have model to share?

Have you talked about your wedding with coworkers? I made the mistake of saying I had to leave work a little early one day because I was going to do a tasting at my venue. That starts a debate on why one shouldn’t get married, how much wedding costs & what a waste it is, dresses are stupid because you only wear them once, etc. I haven’t talked about my wedding much, but I didn’t appreciate this. I ignored the negative comments and we moved the conversation along. Not talking about that anymore!

I work full time & I’m in school right now so I’m stressed about those things and I don’t know how to communicate that I’d just rather not talk about the wedding without sounding ungrateful/happy
