Mentioning no gifts on the wedding invitations

My hubby-to-be and I are getting married on the beach in Hawaii. We're having a reception later in his home-town. How do we word the invitations that we don't want gifts as it would be too hard to travel with 100 gifts from wedding guests? We've tossed about the wishing well idea...

Re: [marisachilafoe] Gifts or No Gifts? [In reply to]

This question isn't really related specifically to second weddings or vow renewals, and the subject has been answered throughout the site. Have a look at our pages on etiquette and invitations. Please also visit topweddingquestions.com to view that forum and what has been addressed many, many times.
Basically, you shouldn't mention your gift preference in any wedding invitation.

Have a wonderful wedding.
