Shower Gifts

My sister is getting married in August, her first time and her fiances 2nd. They both had homes and really do not need another toaster, microware, iron, blender, towels, etc. Is it tacky to invite guests to the shower and call it a cash or gift card only shower?

I would suggest having your sister register somewhere for something. It`s not always about needed but also wanting. Maybe she wants new dishes. But if her wish list is short I would then include a couple places where gift cards would be useful. I would not however mention cash at all. If people don`t want to shop that their option but don`t ask. Hope this helps.
