We were invited but will not attend due to work commitments. Since we do not have to ‘cover the cost of the dinner’ what would be appropriate.
They are not registered anywhere.

I’m a bridesmaid in a wedding this Saturday. I have already given a gift at the bridal shower and spent money for me dress, shoes, etc and also for the cost of a weekend girls bachelorette trip to Atlanta. Do I still have to give a wedding gift? This is starting to add up and I’m just wondering.

I am invited to a good friends wedding and I am unable to make it. I will be going to the bridal shower and will be giving a gift there. Do i still have to give another gift for the wedding even though I will not be attending?

My aunt and uncle are getting married through the Catholic church this weekend. They have been married for 10 years through the state. They are not renewing their vows, simply having their union being recognized by the Church. They are having a ceremony (not a typical wedding) and probably a reception after. What is the protocol concerning gifts? I’m not sure they are not expecting them but would it be polite to give them one?
