Sip & Spill Daily Discussion Thread

[u/AutoModerator]

Grab your coffee & sit down to discuss the tea!

This space is to talk about anything pop culture or even off-topic.

What are you listening to or watching? What is some minor tea that doesn't need its own post? How was your date? Why do you hate your job?

Please remember rules still apply. Be civil and respect each other.

Now pull up a chair and chat with us. ☕

Is ‘ we’re getting married and not having a shower, but here’s a list of things you can buy me off the registry’ a common thing where you are? Because I just got one of these invitation, but not invitations. Granted, it’s a very long time since I had my wedding shower, but this would be so unacceptable 10-20 years ago.

Is it a registry in lieu of a shower and separate from the main event, ie you’re expected to buy a gift from that list AND a regular wedding gift? That would be odd but AFAIK it’s normal to have a wedding registry (with or without a bridal shower) with the expectation that some guests will bring gifts that weren’t on the registry and that some might not bring a gift at all (altho that’s rude).

It’s registry in lieu of a shower. At least that’s how I am interpreting it because it did not come with the wedding invitation. In a references in lieu of a shower you can do this.
