Wedding gift certificate etiquette.
Wedding gift certificates land in two situations: as a contribution to a fund (honeymoon, house, charity-of-choice), or as a stand-alone experience gift outside the registry. Both are appropriate as long as you're explicit about what the certificate redeems.
For a fund contribution, write the fund name on the certificate line ('Toward the Smith honeymoon fund') and your contribution amount below. Hand it to the couple inside a card during the reception, or mail it with the card if you can't attend.
For an experience gift outside the registry — a dinner at the couple's favorite restaurant, a service for after the wedding (housekeeping, meal delivery, photography), a weekend cabin — write the experience itself on the certificate line. Specificity is the whole point: 'one weekend at the lake cabin' beats '$300.'
Skip a certificate entirely if the couple's registry covers what you'd give. The certificate format is for gifts that wouldn't fit on a registry list — services, experiences, or fund contributions.
