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!!

ROFL! And if you bring a date, they can't bring a gift or a check. Or something like that.

I am just wondering. Of the posters on this board who claim that their wedding would have been less enjoyable if less money was spent, how many of them paid for everything themselves?

Say whatever you want, just expect to be asked what you mean by a lot of people when you say a lot of people.

Where did anyone say that I or any "and guest" was expected to bring a gift?
