How to ask people for vouchers

Hi

Just tell people closest to you, and say to spread the word, it always sounds better when your not asking for it yourself lol. Most people will ask, or ask someone who's invited to the wedding also, so hopefully the word spreads enough xx

Hopefully that will work, because i really hate the thought of asking people. I am not really bothered about presents but of course people will buy with it being a wedding, so i would rather just have something that will be of use to us.

Thanks for your help. x

It may not be to people's liking, but getting asked so many times what we wanted, we opted to have the following line put in our invites:

While your presence at our wedding is gift enough for us, for those wishing to bring a gift, vouchers from ****** will be gratefully received to help us *********.

We think this is simple enough that it does not imply some amount wanted, as we have our home, but are saving towards something specific, so anyone wnating to help can, those wishing to not give a gift do not have pressure of ticking something off our gift list.

I agree with maxinedallie, we have put the same sort of thing in our invites. It's better to state something otherwise people may buy you unwanted gifts.x
