Wedding poems

[iamamummy]

So, I'm just prepping my wedding invitations for October. I or should I say we absolutely detest the wedding poems form gifts and especially money.....so I've planned my invites around this but can't help but think family/friends will probe me with gift ideas etc. Has anyone got a poem simply to trash the request of a gift and request the simple company of the guest for your special day? Thanks

Why a poem? Why not just write - no presents, just your presence. Thank you.

That's actually a very valid point, I've just had the invites printed so was hoping for a poem to enclose in the envelope instilling the fact we just want the presence of the family rather than presents. along with the little fliers of the accommodation options, menu options etc. Mmm when I could have added that on the end... (I've never done this before!)

We are getting married next week and are also having no presents, and a few people have asked and we have just told them, no presents we just want you to come and have fun... No big deal. Just wait until you are asked rather than stress about a poem!
