Mariah Carey MCarey060808_01_X17a.jpg The problem with secret weddings, of course, is that you don't get a chance to collect a lot of loot from your friends - unless, it seems, you're Mariah Carey!

The New York Post is reporting that the chart-topping diva recently had her assistant Gina send out emails alerting Mariah's hundred wealthiest friends to the wedding registry she and Nick Cannon had just finished putting together at Bergdorf Goodman - you know, a month and a half after their wedding!

"It's odd because she's not even having a big wedding party or anything," an insider tells the Post. "It was assumed they'd have a big celebration when they got back, but no. They just want the gifts."

Mariah and Nick's list is, of course, predictably ritzy, with lots of requests for "fine china" and "very expensive silver stemware" and the like. Hey, you wouldn't buy a diva like Mariah a toaster, would you?
