 |
|
| I have a friend who is getting married. She had her bridal shower yesterday, which I brought a gift to. Do I still buy her an actual wedding gift? I'm not trying to be cheap. I just don't want to go overboard so...Do you normally buy a bridal shower gift and a wedding gift? Or just one or the other? |

| I know people who did both for my brothers wedding. They brought things to the bridal shower and something else to the wedding reception. I guess its all up to you really. If you spent a large amount on the bridal shower gift, find something cheaper on the registry for the wedding. |

| I was a bridesmaid for my friend, so I bought a gift for her bridal shower (from myself) and for the wedding we gave her $$.So, my answer is yes, you would have to give a gift for the wedding if you are invited. |

| I'm a bit 'cheap myself. I would get another gift or give them a check. It does not have to be very $$$ |

| Set yourself a limit how much you intend to spend.Since you already bought for the bridal shower,if you are going to the wedding reception maybe just a card to Mr.& Mrs.with some money in it. |

| Yes, you should give a gift at the wedding as well. If you give cash it should be enough to cover the cost of your plate (meal). |

| The bridal shower is the time when the wedding gift is solicited. So no more gift need to be given anymore. |

| Yes, you bring a gift to both. Traditionally, since both are invitations, by accepting the invitation and going to the party a gift is expected. A realistic bride should know that your presence is gift enough, but some get hung up over this problem. |
