Going off a previous thread ,Re wedding invites requesting honeymoon money-
I'm getting married next year, We plan to ask for no gifts/money when the invites go out.
As a guest do you think people will still give something? Would you?

It's in poor taste to ask for gifts or to ask that guests don't give a gift. Allow your guests to do what makes them happy and accept their choice graciously.

This is why I’m a fan of wedding lists, I can get something that I know the couple genuinely want/need.

Yes I would still want to get a gift if I was attending the wedding

I would ask the bride or groom or someone close to them for guidance on an appropriate gift

We asked for nothing and were still gifted money from every guest which we gratefully accepted

We didn't mention presents at all, but were bought lots of travel vouchers (from the same travel agency). We were also given money and some lovely gifts. It was really lovely actually, as we genuinely didn't expect anything.
A friend who suggested charity donations in lieu of gifts, got both!
