girls i know this has been covered many a time, but could anybody recommend a actual website where i can find poems or wording for monetary gifts.
i have googled but only finding poems which i deem a little bit sickly and not us at all.
please inbox me if its easier
thanks MX
all ive got to give to you are these 5 words tonight
Thank you for loving me, for being my eyes when i couldnt
see. for parting my lips when i couldnt breathe
thank you for loving me xxx

This website has a few, I like the one about the rules.....**********************************8
Got mine off ebay though this is our poem.....not sure if it's what would be suitable for you?
More than just kisses so far we’ve shared, Our home has been made with love and care, Most things we need we’ve already got, And in out home we can’t fit a lot! A wishing well we thought would be great, (But only if you wish to participate), A gift of money is placed in the well, Then make a wish but shhh don’t tell! Once we’ve replaced the old with the new, We can look back and say it was thanks to you! And in return for your kindness, we’re sure, That one day soon you will get what you wished for. Please don’t be offended at this type of request, As our day is complete having you as our guest.

Does this sound alright????????
We lived together before this wedding So we have a home, full of toasters and bedding So what to get for the bride & groom Whose house is set up in every room? To save you looking, shopping and buying, Here's an idea you might like trying! We need new mattresses for us and the kids and a sofa to sit upon too, But registering for huge items isn't the thing to do So please put some money into a card, Now make a wish.... see, that wasn't hard! Now we've saved you all the fuss, We hope you'll come and celebrate with us! A wishing well will be at the reception hall To deposit your wishes... Thanks and love to you

Hails it sounds good, but being uber critical the line about the matresses and sofa is a bit too long, could you maybe make it,
'We need new mattresses and a sofa to sit upon too, But registering for huge items isn't the thing to do'
might read a bit better - hope it helps Bxx

I found one that I love but I think it may be just a little too long:-
please find within this poem, information just for you, with some rules and regulations, that we both insist you do.
Save the date of June 9Th, is the first thing to say, to share the love and happiness, on our wedding day.
The second one is vital, if you're to be our guest, to eat drink and be merry, or do your very best.
The third one is an order, so don't bring two left feet, as when the evening comes around, you must dance to the beat.
The fourth rule can be broken, we really do not mind, but if you choose to follow it, thank you for being kind.
We've been together for a few years, and have a lovely home, there are not too many items now, we don't already own.
So if you're thoughts were on a gift, your presence will suffice, but if you really feel the need, then money would be nice.
The choice is really up to you, and we would like to say, we hope you come, enjoy yourself, and have a lovely day. x

Suggested Gift List Wording If you want to explain to your guests that they don't have to buy you a gift, or if you want to tell them a bit about your gift list here are some suggestions: Please don't feel obliged to give us a gift - all we really want is to have a lovely wedding which we can share with our friends and family. Your presence is more important than a present! You probably know that we usually like to do things differently - so it might not be a surprise to you that our gift list is a little bit different too! As we already have a lot of household items, we hope you won't mind us asking for money instead of traditional wedding gifts. We're planning to spend the money on... To celebrate our wedding we're going on a once-in-a-lifetime honeymoon which will give us memories we'll always remember. Our honeymoon gift list shows some of the trips we've got planned so you can see how we plan to use your kind wedding gift. We've decided to set up a charity gift list. If you would like to give a gift, this is a perfect way for our wedding to help others less fortunate than us.
Ideas for most sorts of requests
Hurry up July31st I want to be Mrs Hall.

found this: They have their dishes and towels for two They have pots and pans and oven mitts too
So what do you get for the Bride & Groom Whose house is set up in every room?
Their house needs repairs and some upgrades too But you can not register for carpet and glue.
A well that holds wishes is the way to go So lets make it easy for all that know.
An envelope will be provided for those who have room, To give a monetary wish to the Bride and Groom
A wishing well will be on display at the reception hall To attach your wishes, for the couple, with love from all

We haven't got a wedding list, The reasons we'll explain It's to save you all the hassle As shopping is a pain.
We thought we'd ask you all For something else instead A small contribution towards A holiday after we're wed.
So if you'd like to contribute Towards our honeymoon We offer you our heartfelt "Thanks!" With love, the Bride & Groom

We are sending out this invitation In hope you will join a celebration
But if a gift is your intention May we take this opportunity to mention
We have already got a kettle and toaster crockery, dinner mats, and matching coasters
so rather than something we have already got We would appreciate money for our honeymoon pot
But most importantly we request That you come to our wedding as our guest

who do you send the poems to is it just your day guests or all your guests. thanks
CommentAuthorlinzi
i would say just day guests. If evening guests ask then give them the gift list.
my gift list site is giving me little cards to send out with the invites, but I'm not sure if I can amend the wording on them, or put one of these poems on them so i am not sure I am going to use them. I would rather just stick a little insert of my own in with the invitation wording it how I want it to be worded, with the URL of our gift list on there
