It is customary to purchase a shower gift if you are planning on attending it, or if the person purchased you one for your shower. As far as a wedding gift goes, if you plan on attending, plan on purchasing a gift. If you don't plan on attending it is completely up to you whether you purchase a gift or not. A card of congratulations, regardless of whether or not you purchase them a gift, is always welcome and a sign of good manners.

∙ 14y agoMost people I know, bring a smaller gift to the wedding shower (often it's a bridal shower so, it's mostly for the bride anyway). Then, they bring a larger gift to the wedding.
The only reason people are invited to the shower is because they are closer to the couple. You can bring a more personal gift, maybe homemade, or memorable like a picture of you and the couple.

Yes, but why are you having a shower for a 3rd wedding? How about just a luncheon or a dinner and forget the gift giving at this point all around. I would think / hope by this time (3 weddings) that there is an accumulation of items. Unless you want to have a personal shower. But if others are expected to bring a gift, then yes - you are too.
