My cousin’s wedding is coming up and he is already getting many gifts and lots of money, I wanted to buy them something special so I thought of the wedding album idea. I want it done professionally and custom made maybe with their name on it or something. So, what’s the best place for me to do this?
ALSO
If you have any other ideas for special gifts instead please let me know. Thanks in advance!

My mother was telling me the other day that you are supposed to give a check that covers your dinner and a gift for a wedding. I’ve been told that to be safe we should give $100 if you don’t know how much the dinner is to cost. I’ve never heard this before. At our wedding, we didn’t get anything like this. The wedding is actually for one of our groomsmen for our wedding and he gave my husband a flask for a wedding gift. His wedding is today. We’ve bought them about $100 in gifts…do we also need to bring a check?

I got married last month in Las Vegas. My sister is giving my husband and I a party. This is not a shower, and not an occasion where I am expecting gifts. However, I know that some people may bring gifts. In this instance, do I open the gifts at the party, or should I wait until later? I have heard different perspectives. Some say that you open gifts at a shower, but not at a party. Other people are of the opinion that it is tacky not to go ahead and open the gifts that people bring. I don’t want to offend anyone! What is the proper protocol here! Thanks!

Getting married soon and wondering what the etiquette is for gifts for the officiant? We are getting married in a church and have already paid a fee to have the marriage. Just want to see if an additioal gift is required. Thanks.

The invitation clearly states no gifts, but I feel ackword about not bringing one, should I bring one anyways or give one to my friends at a later date? what is appropriate?
