Not INvited to the wedding,do we still have to gift

[Hollyhunny]

his daughter has announced she is getting married and facebooked me..

any suggestions on a gift?

Do you know what sort of wedding she is having?

I'm getting married in a registry office next year and we can only have 30 guest to the service. However we're having 160 to the reception.

Maybe she is just having imediate family to the ceremony. My aunts and uncles won't be invited to my wedding, only the reception.

 

[Hollyhunny]

good question
no I dont know where she is having it?
I will have to find out somehow

 

[simplylucy]

Well there you go then, she is probably having a small ceremony.

Surely if you don't give her a gift then you are acting as bad as her father which is what upset you in the first place?

Give the gift you will feel better and they cant say your a nasty person, i have the same problem at christmas time, i give the presant and feel as tho i'v done my bit, plus i feel good

thanks wendy

another persons' opinion always helps

I would give a gift, do they already live together or will they be setting up 'home' together after? Maybe a gift voucher?

I always find meanness of spirit breeds meanness of spirit back... Rise above and show the true beauty of yourself xx

Holly, I think it's good for the future to give a little something and a nice card.

Go with your pocket and as Julie says a voucher always a good idea and it can be posted with a card... otherwise... it's a case of asking if you don't know what they have got...

I tend to enjoy giving rather than receiving and I even celebrate my dog's birthdays, so I would definately acknowledge the marriage and send a token with love...
