Ok, with all the wedding talk and what to give for gifts, I am NOW, after going to weddings for almost 20 years-lol! invited to an outdoor wedding in someone's home.
Here is the scenario:
Bride and Groom (she 22, he 36)
Living together for over 3 years
Groom-12 year old son
Bride and Groom-have a 3 year old and she is due with their 2nd in August
Wedding:
At her mother's house-catered food from restaurant

I know in other posts I said I would probably give the same as a sit down reception but we were orally invited to this wedding so I assume they are doing this just to get married before the 2nd child arrives. I have NO clue now what to do about a gift-lol!!

Lol, I agree. Not a very good return on your money, especially if your guests "stiff" you, lol.

I'm sure they are, but what they *make* of their experience and how *satisfied* they are with it is not only personal but might also have nothing to do with money.

I've said it over and over that my parents paid for my wedding. Not ashamed or embarassed. They also think that your wedding is the biggest day of your life and had no problem paying for it.

???? What does that have to do with people trying to impress other with how much money they have in the bank? I could care less what people think of my bags.
