* No, this would be poor etiquette because it's a wedding or engagement. Giving to a charity is generally done when someone has passed away.

I would slightly rephrase it, such as:"...In lieu of individual gifts, the family and friends of the guest of honour have decided to pool for single large gift. - You are invited to participate at your pleasure"
