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!!

Where was it stated that I had to buy a gift?

There could be any number of reasons that he doesn't.

I answered the question. I was not calling the poser a liar. Should I not have answered it? Tell me which would have been better for me, lol.

Why are you changing the wording? You said in your original post to me which is incorrect as I have pointed out.

That would be assuming I know what is better for you. You know what they say about assuming. ;-)

It was a joke. It seems you're damned if you do and damned if you dont. If you answer the question, you're jumping all over it, if you don't, you're dodging or avoiding.
*you* meaning general you.
