I think that it is a terrifc idea to ask guest to order online and have items sent directly to her. My sister didn't do this and she ended up having tons of gifts at my mom's house that we had to ship to her home. It cost hundreds of dollars to have the gifts shipped. I would ask guest to order online, but print a picture of what they ordered so that she can see what they got her at the shower. I wouldn't however ask guest to tell what they would like her to spend the gift card on. Because there may be other items that she needs more. I do agree with Cathy though, your daught should just let people know what she spent the gift card/money one. Also you could have guest check out www.creativebabydesigns.com for cute gifts that can be shipped after the shower so that they can extend the party/celebration.

Cathy, It's perfectly fine to request that guests purchase online and have the gifts sent directly to your daughter. That makes perfect sense because they will eventually have to be shipped to your daughter anyway. However, I do not suggest asking guests to tell your daughter how to use the gift cards. Your guests should trust that if they do send a gift card, it will be used to purchase something for the baby, something that the parents will need. When your daughter sends out her thank you cards, she should, however, let her guests know what she bought with their gift card. That would be a nice gesture.
