It looked really messy and meant that gifts/cards might go a-wandering.” “I went to a wedding not to long ago where the bride and groom did not have a box to put cards in and it meant that cards and gifts were left in all sorts of places.If I could avoid that easily and cheaply, I would (and did!).”
Of course, this is not something you HAVE to do, but I worked weddings for 4+ years and if there was not a birdcage or box or whatever, people seemed confused about where to put the cards. It just seems a good idea to have them all in a place that IF someone decided to try and sneak off with the cards, it would be pretty noticeable. “I think it is a good idea even if you don’t ask for gift, you might have an aunt or uncle who will ignore that and stick $ in a card.Our readers way off on the question: DO I NEED A CARDBOX AT MY WEDDING? Guests probably will expect some place to put any gifts they might get you despite your preference or any cards they might choose to give. You could use a basket, just collect them by hand, or tell people to set it on a table. I used a box I happened to have that looked like a little suitcase because we had a small wedding, easy enough to monitor who was walking in the doors, and I hadn't had time or energy to be more creative about it. Many of them are meant to be somewhat secure so that if you receive money in a card it won't walk away. Generally, cardboxes are a place to put any cards you receive at the wedding. It's like the whole wedding universe assumes I already know this thing. I feel like a dunce, but I honestly haven't been able to find a satisfactory answer. I guess what I'm trying to figure out is – do I need a cardbox at my wedding? Are people going to expect it, in the “I brought you a card, where do I put it?” sort of way? Because if it's going to make everybody's life easier, I guess that makes sense, but honestly the whole thing confuses me.
However, I'm still not sure exactly what a card box is for! Is it for people who want to give you cards, so you don't have to hold onto them? If so, are these “congratulations!” cards, or do they include money? We're trying to discourage people from giving us presents, but I'm totally down with handwritten notes of support.
