If you are a good friend and can't make the wedding you should give a little something. But if you weren't invited, this basically gives you no obligation to give. You could have a office gift pool, everyone throws in five bucks or something. Also, check out www.theweddingenvelope.com/calculator.php it is a wedding gift calculator, might help in future.

∙ 11y agoIs it proper? Not only is it proper, but it is a very nice gesture to do so when you have not been invited. It is never wrong to give a gift when the sentiment comes from your heart (although the type of gift may have restrictions, e.g., you would never give your teacher lingerie as a gift). Gifts that are given solely in hopes of getting something in return are in bad taste and should be avoided.

∙ 10y agoNo, I would not. I would verbally congratulate him/her however. It's not always necessary to reward someone with a physical gift. I believe that in some instances a verbal acknowledgement is of extreme importance and the most appropriate grace or gift that one can receive.

Do you get a gift for the bride and groom if you are only invited to the reception?
It is quite common and acceptable to attend a wedding without bringing a gift with you. Many people give the wedding gift before the wedding, and some give it after the wedding. So if you've already given the gift, or plan to give it later, it is perfectly find to attend the wedding without bringing a gift with you. And if you simply can't afford a wedding gift, then don't worry about it. A wedding is about the bride and groom wanting their family and friends to share in their happiness and the celebration of their marriage, and shouldn't be all about inviting guests just so they will get more gifts. If I ever felt someone invited me to a wedding simply to get a gift, I would not go to the wedding, nor would I get them a wedding gift.

It isn't necessarily required, but if you don't give them a gift, it could be a problem later. Especially if you weren't invited because it was a destination wedding. If it was because of a family disagreement, it is always better to be the bigger person and mend bridges.
