1. Re-Gifting Anything!
First
off, if you didn’t like it, what makes you think they will. Secondly,
wouldn’t it be awful to get caught re-gifting the gift they gave you!
2. Duplicate Gifts
Make
sure to look at the registry before buying something. There’s nothing
worse than getting twenty toasters.
3. Perishable Food
Don’t
forget the couple will likely be going on a honeymoon for at least a
week!
4. Useless Books
They
might be a little insulted to receive a book on how to make a marriage
work.
5. Inappropriate Gifts
There’s
a time and a place ?a wedding is neither!
6. A piece of art
Art
is very personal. You run the risk of getting something the couple
doesn’t like, but feels obligated to display.
7. Yard ornaments
Especially
when they have a studio apartment in the city.
8. Cleaning Supplies
The
message you are sending is either a). they need to clean their house,
or b). housework is woman's work.
9. Tacky knick-knacks
Chances
are they’ll end up in the attic, basement or trash can.
10. Grandma’s Old Lamp
The
retro seventies lamp will most likely join the tacky knick-knacks in
the trash.
