How To Ask For Cash In Wedding Invitations

How to ask for cash in wedding invitations without appearing rude can be tricky. The first thing to say is, don't! Some of your guests will find it rude. Saying that most of your guests will ask for a wedding list so you will need to ask the help of your parents and close friends and family to pass on the request for cash. Your guests will understand that having cash is much more useful to help you start your married life.

If you are planning on creating a wedding website then you could have a note explaining that you would love money to help you for your new home together.

Having a honeymoon fund is another way for guests to help, take a look at my article on how to set up your honeymoon registry.

Older guests may want to buy you something from your wedding list and to please them you can have a small wedding list at one of the local stores, there will always be something you need for the house.

For those guests that do want to buy something you could set up a sofa (or another large item) fund as my sister and brother in law did. Some also have collections for the deposit on a house.

You can also have a wedding card box on your gift table or a wedding money tree or a wishing well at your reception. Guests can then put their cash into these.
