I don't think it would be inappropriate and if I gave you the gift I would be happy to see that you like them and are using them!
However, you could always send them a quick email saying how much you love them and then ask if they wouldn't mind if you used them at the wedding!
we got our champagne tosting flutes as a gift and then of course used them for the reception - Go for it, I think they'll be flattered that you couldn't wait to use them!
I don't think it's inappropriate. I received toasting flutes and a cake knife and server, all of which I plan to use at my reception.
I don't think it is either. If I were the one to give you those gifts and I saw them at the wedding, I'd be pretty flattered.
The only rule about wedding gifts is that you can't use them before the wedding. The reason for this is so they are able to be returned if the wedding gets called off. Considering you will be using these at the reception.. you will have already done the deed and made it legal. If you do pull a runaway bride no one will know you tried to use them since the reception probably won't go on : ) Use 'em!
I think that's totally fine. They'd probably be pleased to see their gift in use. One OOT guest gave us a piece of artwork. We've hung it so that when she comes in early for the wedding she'll see it hanging in our living room.
People receive toasting flutes and cake cutters as gifts all the time, and they're always used at the wedding. Go for it!
I would send an early thank you note to the gift giver with a head's up so they're not wondering if you received duplicates of the gift.
I say use them, the gift giver will be flattered that you liked them so much that you decided to use them in your wedding!
I agree -- I'd be totally flattered. As a gift giver, you always hope that your gift hits the mark, and this would be a great way to show you were excited about their gift.
I agree with everyone. I went shopping with my mom and pointed out a cake set I wanted to buy for the wedding. She told me I couldn't buy that because someone else would buy it for me! I was surprised, but turns out a lot of people traditionally use gifts given at the wedding fro the wedding in my family.

A guest sent us two huge crystal candelabras. Part of me really wants to put them in the ballroom for the reception....is this way inappropriate? The guest who gave them to us will be there....
