Is there any etiquette stating that there is a correlation between the amount spent per person at the wedding reception and the cost of a gift that the guest gives the bridal couple?
No, there is no correlation between the amount spent on the guests at the wedding reception and the cost of a gift given to the married couple. The bride's parents pay for most of the wedding and the groom's parents pay for a smaller part of the wedding. Any gift given by a guest (generous, large or small) should be well received.
What do you do if you dont receive gift from a wedding guest?
I wouldn't let this bother me. The guest may be impolite, or just broke. Do not expect much from others or you will find that they are not dependable, and will turn into a pessimist. Just be happy the guest arrived(:
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.
If you decline a wedding invitation do you still need to send a gift?
I don't think you should if you weren't invited to the wedding. In polite society, gifts are NOT to be expected. If you want to send a gift it is up to you whether you get an invitation or not.
What is it called when you give a gift after a wedding?
Etiquette states that you have up to a year after the wedding to get someone a wedding gift.
Who gives out gift to the bridesmaids at a wedding?
Most brides do not open their gifts at the wedding reception and some brides may have a 'gift opening' at the bride's parent's home. The gifts are piled near her and her maid of honor hands her the gifts; once the gift is opened it is up to the maid of honor to write in each card what that guest gave the bride and groom for a gift.
