My wife and I did our TM and church wedding 2 years ago. At both ceremonies we had gifts from family and friends. Most of the gifts were repeatitions, 3-5 people giving same or similar gifts. Some gifts though unique are not necessarily desired. We live outside our home state where both ceremonies took place. These excess gift have been locked in our room back home. We have given some to people whenever we go home.
While I appreciate the gesture of all that gave us these gifts, I have suggested to my wife that we sell the excess even at a reduce price. She does not agree. In fact we have quarreled several times on this. I see no point allowing these items to occupy space without any use. She wants them to remind her of her wedding day and the persons that gave the gifts.

Would you sell your excess wedding gift? Would you buy such from someone?

Dash some out!

Women, keeping rubbish load sinx 1852.

Very simple...Give them out..

no take it to the motherless and orphanage homes or probably give it out to thos families that lacks

gv me

Why keep what you can't use. Give it to the poor. It is a blessing .

lagoon far from your house (i suppose u no what that means) trow them there

See question

Thank you all for your responses. @SPG4U, motherless or orphanage home is not an option. My experience has shown that most gifts given to such homes end up being used by the owners or workers at such homes. Till integrity/transparency is enhanced in our society, children in such homes will not benefit much from the generosity of the public due to the greed of the operators or workers there.

@belamour, we don't live where these gifts are and we rarely attend functions back home. Going by the quantity of these gifts, it may take many years to give them out if we rely on giving it at other persons functions.

All the same, we will try something based on your suggestions.

How far with these excess gifts of yours? What is the location? We can buy them off at 50% of the market value.

Please, is a washing machine part of the gift. I need a very cheap one.
