Yes, if your child plays with the child having the birthday or goes to school with them. You could get a gift, card and take your child over to let them hand it to them at an earlier date.
Yes, if the child is a relative or the child of a friend that you are close to. If it's just a co-workers child or a child of someone you don't know well, no.

∙ 15y ago* It is poor etiquette not to send a gift. You could send the gift with a friend that is going or drop it off a few days after the wedding shower (just in case it's a surprise for the bride to be.) A card should be attached to the gift and inside you should let them know you are sorry you could not attend, but send your best wishes (or love.)

∙ 14y agoYou are never obligated to send a gift, but it's a nice gesture, especially if you like the couple (or the one you know/are related to.) You can send just a card, especially if you can't afford anything. Try to personalize it with a remeberance of something you did together in happy times (Unless this person is your ex, in which case you don't need to send anything if you don't want to.)

∙ 11y ago- Even if you have bought a wedding shower gift and have been invited to the wedding you should also give the bride and groom a gift.

Can you invite guests to bridal shower if they are not invited to the wedding due to venue constraints?
You can, of course, but a great deal of tact will be required since it's only human nature for those not invited to the wedding to wonder how you reached the decision to invite others and not them.On the other hand, there could be resentment if you invite friends to neither the shower nor the wedding!One idea might be to make it a special shower, maybe with champagne and good finger food, and explain privately to each person not invited to the wedding how bad you feel at not being able to fit everybody in, but there simply isn't room.Perhaps you could give them, privately again, a small gift - a keepsake - of the wedding and suggest that once you're settled following the honeymoon, you'll give a simple, intimate party just for them. Do this before the wedding, otherwise it might appear to some that you feel they're upset and are simply trying to pacify them.
