Can guests get gift cert. for bride? And how does that work?
 
Yes, they can. They just purchase a gift certificate with the bride as recipient. However, I generally discourage this. The bride would have to pay the shipping for an individual order. At a bridal shower she'll have the bride's wish list, so she'll be able to know that what she buys is appreciated. Of course, she could always give cash for the bride to use as the shower is closing to purchase anything that wasn't given as a gift. That way she can use it for 1/2 price or discounted products.

Hi there! Yes, guests can definitely purchase gift certificates for the bride. It's a great way to give her the gift of choice and allow her to pick out exactly what she wants from our catalog. To purchase a gift certificate, the guest can either contact me directly or visit my website and click on the "gift certificates" tab. They can choose the amount they would like to give and enter the bride's name and email address for delivery. The bride will then receive an email with instructions on how to redeem her gift certificate. Let me know if you have any other questions. Happy gifting!
