Who is good at invitation wording?
I was selected to design invites for a bridal shower for my cousin's FI. The theme is "Around the Clock". Each guest is assigned a time of day and you're supposed to coordinate a gift with that time. (7:00 a.m. could be a coffee maker and mugs for example.)
Does anyone want to help with wording? Even though bringing a gift is implied and the hosts are suggesting something specific I don't want it to be blatantly gift-grabby. Maybe that is unavoidable in this case?
Help!!!
Thanks. :-)
Warning
No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml

Well, the point of a shower is to shower the bride with gifts, so you're probably safe, there's not much that would sound too gift-grabby.
I googled and found these examples:
Tick, tock, tick, tock, come to a party that's "round the clock"
Help us give (Bride) the "time of her life"
As she and (Groom) become husband and wife
So please bring a gift to this Bridal Shower
That can be used during your assigned hour!
