I've not attended many wedding but I've been invited to one this summer. On the invitation it says they don't want a gift but wouldn't mind a contribution to their house fund as they want to buy their own place.
I was wondering how common this is?
Is the request for a contribution to a house fun or honeymoon fund a regular thing?
Or any ideas for wedding presents?
Thanks!

Some people do a list of what they actually want or need.

It is very common, many couples already live together so they have everything.
Just give them what they've asked for, no point thinking of a gift they don't want. It also saves you a lot of hassle going out and buying something. And at on average £100 a head for your invite to their wedding reception, its the least you could do.  |

Buying a gift, arriving with it all neatly wrapped etc will only single you out to everyone as a cheapskate who bought a cheaper present instead of the money they asked for. Most people will just arrive with envelopes. |

My sister is getting married this year and has asked for dollars towards the honeymoon. As people have said before they already have their own home and everything they need xx |
