Evening reception invite gift wording

I wouldn't put anything. If people want to give a gift, they will most likely either give cash or vouchers, or will ask someone (most probably you!) for guidance.

In your shoes I wouldn't put anything in. If people want to give they'll eitherask you or give cash or vouchers

Hello,

We are thinking about doing the exact same thing. We also want money to help pay for the trip to Cyprus so we have decided to have the reception in the UK before we go but in terms of wording it will probably say something like this:

'We have been very lucky to have made our home together over the past 4 years and we would any donations to go towards our future together.'

I have also just found this poem online which is pretty cute!

When thinking of a gift for us

We ask if you’d please consider

Contributing to our honeymoon
to make it all the sweeter.
Our house is full of all the things
a couple could require,
and so a holiday away
is what we most desire.
Then while we're relaxing on the beach
or by the pool so blue
we'll sit back and know
that it is truly thanks to you!

We are getting married here but are asking for money / vouchers, we used a honeymoon website and are directing internet savvy guest there, we want to go to new york so have items on there like 1x street pretzel 1x show ticket etc so friends can select to spend £10 and buy us both a snack - if that makes sense! One family member wanted to be part of it but give us quite a lot of money so we have split 'air miles' in to a lot of £10 sections so a guest could say select 5 and send us well on our way with £50!
