I know it's bad etiquette to mention gifts in the invite but OH and I have been together nearly 10 years and living together for 8 of those, so when it comes to wedding gifts we really don't need any of the 'traditional' things.
We've already mentioned on the website that we would prefer cash towards the honeymoon or vouchers for John Lewis or something but not everyone checks the website. I want to put something in the invite, but not necessarily one of those poems (some can be a bit long winded).
This is what I've got so far. Its rhyming though so not sure I like it:
It's a mish mash of three poems, hence why it doesn't read very well. But it says all the things we want it to. We don't want to just flat out ask for money only, and we don't want people to feel like they have to bring something at all. So that has it all...but it just sounds too cheesy!!!

and have most things we need.
But if you wish, a monatory gift would be greatfully received.
If you prefer to bring a gift, please surprise us in your own way.
But don't feel obliged as all we ask is that you join us on the day
