Chris and Emily Wedding
Emily Chow & Chris Manke
April 28, 2024
Hello Family and Friends! We are so excited to celebrate our wedding with you!!!
We've chosen this website as it gives the freedom of listing untraditional gifts. While we would appreciate new items, we want to be mindful of our consumption and would especially welcome items that are second hand, especially ones that are made of sustainable or long-lasting materials like wood or stainless steel. If you do choose to buy new, we would love to receive from a company that you endorse and would also appreciate gift receipts. We would also love to receive gifts that you may have in your home that you would love to pass along our way!
This website compiles our list of gift requests, but does not sell the gifts. If you would like to 'claim' a gift, be sure to click on the 'Give this gift' button so the gift will be claimed in your name, and so that we won't receive any duplicates. Then, you can follow our instructions on how or where to give the gift. Thank you!
We're still figuring out what our wedding celebration will look like but we do know there will be planning and work involved in it. If you are open to helping us with various wedding tasks (pre, during, and/ or post) we'd love to hear from you. We're happy to talk with you about what you'd like to help with. Things we can think of right now include set up on the day of, picking up items/ foods, helping with dishes after.... the list could go on and on. If you'd like to give us the gift of time and your support, please send us a message so we can plan accordingly.
