Tá súil agam gur deora áthais iad sin… Ó, Dia, an bhfuil fuath aige go rúnda dom? An gceapann sé go bhfuil botún á dhéanamh againn?

Some sort of registry is a must for every engaged couple, whether you want to go the traditional route or shake it up with a honeymoon, experiential, or hobby-based version. But after you add all the gifts to your wedding wishlist, how are you supposed to spread the news to your nearest and dearest without seeming too, go maith, greedy? Like most wedding-related matters, the answer to this question comes with its own set of rules and etiquette. But with our little list of dos and don’ts, sharing your registry will be a piece of cake.

Do include information on your bridal shower invitations. Chances are, you’re not throwing your own shower, so having if the host adds a link or note to the invitation, it’s totally fine. While a bride or groom asking for gifts directly can be taken as a little rude, your mom, aintín, or bestie can feel free to spread the word on your behalf. Agus, because bridal showers are actually all about the gift giving anyway (ribbon bouquets and hats have to be made from rud éigin, tar éis gach rud), guests will want and need to know what you’d like to receive.

Don’t post a Facebook status with links to your registry. While this might make it easy for some people to find your registry, don’t forget that you (probably) haven’t invited every single one of your Facebook friends to your wedding. Móide, it could cross the line into “greedy” territory. Posting a link to your wedding website — which should have easy-to-find registry links — is totally okay, cé, as is texting or emailing the info to interested parties. Just make the effort to say something like, “But please know that your presence at the wedding and kind words are more than enough!” to soften the request.

Do include a registry page on your wedding website. Probably the best thing about the new age invention of wedding websites is the opportunity to share your registry information without seeming all “gimme gimme.” Include links to the online stores so guests can access them easily and choose their gifts without too much of a hassle. Just be careful with the language you use to introduce your loved ones to the page: Bain triail as rud éigin cosúil le “Más mian leat bronntanas a thabhairt don bhrídeog agus don groom…” le cinntiú go bhfuil a fhios ag d’aíonna gur rogha é bronntanas a thabhairt.

Ná cuir do shuíomh Gréasáin bainise ar do shábháil ar an dáta. Cé nach gá duit a rá, “Hey, táimid cláraithe ag Sprioc!” ar an dáta a shábháil, is féidir leis an bhfógra a bheith ina bhealach maith chun an scéal a scaipeadh faoi do shuíomh Gréasáin. Gach duine cuireadh chun na bainise (fiú mura bhfuil siad in ann teacht ar an gceiliúradh) gheobhaidh siad an t-eolas sin agus beidh siad in ann na sonraí a dhéanamh amach dóibh féin más mian leo rud éigin a cheannach duit in onóir do bainise.

Ná cuir d’fhaisnéis clárlainne ar do chuireadh bainise. Déan cinnte láithreán gréasáin na bainise sin a chur isteach áit éigin ar an gcuireadh, ach níor cheart go luafaí go díreach bronntanais ar do chuireadh ar chor ar bith — fiú mura bhfuil aon bhronntanais á lorg agat. (Agus cinnte nach bhfuil a iarraidh ar airgead tirim in ionad bronntanais!) Cuimhnigh, bronntanais atá riamh a bheith ag teastáil; má chuireann tú eolas ar bhronntanais ar an gcuireadh, d’fhéadfaí an teachtaireacht mhícheart a sheoladh chuig d’aíonna agus cuir orthu smaoineamh go bhfuil tú ag súil leo bronntanas a thabhairt leat seachas a láithreacht — ní bréige fionnuar nó gleoite é a thabhairt., fiú mar bride-to-be.

Bí ag brath ar bhriathar béil na sean-scoile chun an focal a scaipeadh. Ar ais sula raibh láithreáin ghréasáin bainise rud, d'fhoghlaim aíonna faoi chlárlanna trí cheist a chur ar theaghlach an bhrídeog nó an groom, VIPanna, agus freastalaithe. Agus níor cheart go bhfaigheadh ​​traidisiúin áirithe bás - mar sin bí cinnte na sonraí a roinnt le do neasteaghlach, bréidín, agus groomsmen, agus cuir in iúl dóibh gur féidir leo an focal a scaipeadh ar do shon.

Here is a complete guide to which vendors you should tip (and how much!) on your wedding day.

lónadóireacht:
If your contract doesn’t include gratuity, you should tip 15 chun 20 percent of the total bill. Another way to tip is offering $50 chun $100 for each chef and $20 chun $50 per server.

Wedding planner:
Wedding planners won’t expect a tip, so this is optional based on service. If you were given a huge discount or the planner went far above and beyond their contracted services, offering a tip of 10 chun 20 percent is a nice way of saying “thank you” for the efforts.

Photographer and videographer:
You’re not required to tip them if they own the studio. If they don’t, then giving them an extra $50 chun $200 is a nice gesture. If there are two or three shooters, giving a $50 chun $100 tip to each person (who doesn’t own the business) is optional.

Ceremony staff and reception staff:
It’s not mandatory to tip the ceremony staff, reception staff and delivery staff, but if you’d like to, then you can offer them $20-$50 each.

Officiant:
Often times officiants won’t accept tips, but a $100 donation to their church is a great way to thank them. If the officiant is non-denominational, consider giving them a $100 tip, especially if they aren’t charging for your service.

Hair and makeup artist:
A 15 chun 20 percent tip is expected, just like it would be for any other regular salon visit, but it isn’t required.

Band or DJ:
Offering a 10 chun 15 percent tip is a nice gesture to your band or DJ, especially if they have to carry a lot of heavy equipment from one location to the next. For musicians, a $25 chun $50 tip per band member is appropriate.

iompar:
A 15 percent tip is optional if it isn’t included in the contract.

florist:
The florist doesn’t expect a tip. Ach, if they do an outstanding job, you can consider giving them a 10 chun 15 percent tip after services are rendered.

Keep this in mind:
Though tipping at weddings has become more of a custom in all service areas, it isn’t mandatory or even expected by most wedding pros. With the exception of the catering staff and possibly the venue, tips are considered a nice surprise by almost all vendors.

If you don’t have the money to shell out thousands more on tips, there are a few gestures that will go a long way with your team of wedding pros. Send an email with a review, a handwritten thank-you note or a review on Yelp or WeddingWire are great ways to show appreciation and offer something the vendor can use when booking future clients. Nios fearr, refer your vendors to your friends — this gesture will go much further than a cash tip!

Móide, learn how much to tip while traveling on your honeymoon.

The team of real brides post about the highs and lows of wedding planning and what it takes to pull off their big day. Aside from running Engaged & Inspired, Allison also offers planning and design services to the Carmel Valley area.

Tipping is supposed to act as a reward, so you don’t need to consider it a mandatory expense. Tips are meant to be given for excellent service or for vendors who go above and beyond their contracted duties. Before dishing out gratuity, check your contracts. Some vendors, especially venues and catering companies, will include it in their contract to help eliminate confusion.
