What to Do About Problems with Wedding Gifts
What happens if a wedding gift someone told you they have sent you never arrives? This is a case where you may need to contact the person who sent you the gift. If they wrapped and mailed the gift themselves, then hopefully they also ensured it with the delivery service. In that case, the post office or parcel post surface would reimburse the sender for the amount of the insurance.
If the wedding gift was being sent from the merchant, then you or the sender of the gift can contact that merchant to see what the problem might be. Most businesses are going to be very happy to make things right. This includes a situation where the gift may have arrived but it was banged up, broken, or just didn’t function like it was supposed to.
But what if you get a gift that you don’t like or may be it is that something you don’t like so much as it is something you just have no need for? We all know what rejecting is. We all have received birthday gifts or Christmas gifts that we have no need or desire of. And so we just put it off to the side until it’s time for us to give someone a gift and we pass it on to them hoping that they will appreciate it. That might work. And then again it might not.
What happens if a person who gave you that gift notices that you don’t have it anymore? Or if it is all in the family maybe they spot the gift in the home of the person that you gave it to. It could turn out to be little more than embarrassing. We are not saying don’t ever reject but you do want to be careful that you don’t hurt someone’s feelings. The same thing could happen if you try to exchange the gift for something else or just try to get the cash.
Finally, sometimes weddings are called off. In that case, doesn’t it make sense to return the gift? You don’t want to hang on to that expensive crystal wedding tree when in the end you didn’t get married as planned. It really doesn’t matter why the wedding didn’t take place, it is just the right thing to do to give gifts back. You don’t have to do a lot of explaining that simply return the gift and thank them.
