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.  :-)

  • 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!
