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!!

<<You don't recall? You sound very political, lol.>>
No, I sound like it happened twenty years ago and I don't recall what happened, lol.
<<I think it is tacky to bring a date and never discuss what they will give as a gift. >>
Since again, that is not what I stated, I doubt it.

<<How many times are you going to ask me this?>>
Until you answer it, you keep mentioning stating a lot, I have no idea who you are talking about.
<<There ARE people who never leave their town and save all their money. Who? ok my fil and his wife if you need to know an example. >>
That's two, they have never ever traveled anywhere?

Where was this stated? I know hazel has said that she expect to spend more and needs to open her wallet at times...but I don't think she has gone that far, can you provide a post?
Do I need to tell you everyplace I have ever been in my life?
"You said a lot, I do not think two is a lot."
You don't think 2 is alot? What about 2 murders or 2 drunk driving convictions?
<<So tell me again why it's okay for a family to spend thousands on a vacation while another family stays close to home and saves money than it is for a bride to spend tens of thousands on her wedding or another who scrimps and saves every step of the way? >>
Since I again, didn't state that....I suggest you address your question to whomever did.
