WR - Because i got such great help last time....
....Someone just helped me with a saying for the Wishing Well at my FSIL's shower and now i need help again!
How should i word that the bride wants gifts wrapped in clear paper?
Or should i leave that off the invite and put an insert in the invitation? (But i'd still need wording help)....
TIA!!!!

My mom called mine a peek a boo shower I believe. I did not want to spend hours opening presents so instead everyone wrapped their gifts in clear paper and I held them up one by one.

Time is of the essence
Please make sure we can see your presents
There is no time to unwrap and mingle
Please let us see your gift so we can enjoy Jane while she is still single

I've seen it describes as a "Display Shower" explaining that the bride or mother-to-be wants to spend time with her guests instead of opening all the presents.

Thanks ladies!! Now the bride wants me to include a message on the invite about not using any wrapping at all....she is very "green".
i have NO IDEA how i am going to include all of this on the invite...i guess i have to include another card in the invite.....

I was on board for this "peek a boo" thing but IMO if i got an invitation saying that my gift should not be wrapped, I'd be a little annoyed. At that point bride would get a gift card and she can go to the store and go look at all the unwrapped gifts. half the fun for me is wrapping gifts and the presentation.

That is exactly what my mom said...she would give a gift card!
