I know you're doing a lot, but you do need to give a wedding gift.
The bridesmaid can give the bride a gift on the wedding day. However, sometimes brides will have a bridal shower, and if so, then that is when the present can be given.
Yes, but include a gift receipt in case they need to return it.
It does not matter where the wedding is held you should give a wedding gift. Since the wedding is in the Caribbean then you can buy them something less expensive.
There are lots of different gifts that you could buy for a bride. Some I suggest are a personalized wedding carriage wine bucket or maybe something like a pearl bracelet.
If you wish. It isn't required.
I recommend you buy a gift for the couple as soon as the registry (list of things they need) is released. Always keep the receipt in case the relationship doesn't work out and the wedding is called off.
If you are invited to the bridal shower and the wedding it is usually customary to buy a gift for both events. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well if you are invited to bridal shower as well as wedding.... then definitely you need to take care of the budget. Because now you have to spend twice. So the best solution to this is for bridal shower buy something not all that expensive...some things that come to my mind are: # Wedding Bowls & Plates # Wedding Night Lingerie # Tees for Brides # Spa Gift Sets # Drinkware # Cookbooks for Newlyweds
Retail outlets on high streets and in shopping malls.
If they are religious a figurine of their religion is nice.
When you go to a Wedding or Baby Shower and have no gift wrap you can buy decorative bags to put the give in and then cover it in tissue paper.
Well it is always good to gift on a wedding, however, huge gifts are not recommended. Buy something which you can carry comfortably, something in your budget and something the wedded couple could use.
