Our wedding invitation we put 'The Perfect Present is your Presence. No gifts please.' We were financially stable and our house had everything we needed. Gift registry seemed like a hassle and waste. Asking for money seemed petty and wasn't needed.
Still ended up getting nearly $5000 in cash for just under 100 guests and nearly $1000 in various restaurant/store gift cards. We were surprised.
Really shows that guests insist on bringing or feel obliged to wedding gifts.
