No Wedding Gifts for Me

by Need
(San Mateo, CA USA)

I grew up in a family that did exchange wedding gifts.

As I was growing up, that became the usual habit and I carried this into my adult life.

When I got married, everyone was very clear that we did not want to receive any gifts.

People KNOW we don't exchange gifts at all.

Therefore...

There is no disappointment, no obligation on our part and it doesn't cost you a dime.

The real gift is being there and guide a couple who is about to embark into married life.

One shouldn't get into materialistic things BECAUSE that doesn't bring the true happiness.
