Wedding planning

There is nothing wrong with asking people to do a donation to a charity or help with funds for the honeymoon. More people are living together long before getting married so they accumulate household items that would normally be given as gifts.
When my aunt married her boyfriend of 30 years they asked that guest (if they wanted to) could donate to local charities. As they had everything they needed and would rather help those in need.
You can ask 10 different people and the answers and suggestions will vary. You do what feels right for the two of you. Good luck and many blessing to you and yours.
