Gift Certificates

The reason I ask is because my fiance and I have lived together for over 3 years, so we have most of the stuff that you would ask for on your registry. I would hate to just get new stuff just to get it, and it would be much more helpful if family and friends helped by giving money to put towards wedding expenses. And if you did this, how would you go about asking for it?
When I meant ask for gift certificates, I was really referring to the bridal shower! I am not expecting money or presents from anyone, but let’s be realistic, you get presents for your wedding! I just want to be as practical as possible!
