Re-Gifting Etiquette
Question:
We have received lots of duplicate gifts and some gifts that we know
we will never use. Please tell us about the proper re-gifting
etiquette.
Answer:
Re-gifting is very practical and is generally allowed provided you
play by the rules:
1. Do not give a gift back to the person who gave it you. This is
common sense, but we tend to lose track of some gifts during
weddings.
2. Similarly, re-gifting to someone who knows the original giver
carries the risk of exposing both your lack of attachment to the
gift, and your failure to select and purchase a new gift for the
recipient.
3. Remove any cards or other signs that indicate that the gift was
originally given to you.
4. It is inappropriate to re-gift an item after using it for some
time.
