I would send a lovely card with an international certified cashiers check for whatever amount you can afford. Considering what you would have to spend if you were to attend --- A heartfelt congratulatory letter or perhaps you can search online for someone in their area to make something personalized for them... like pay for them to have spa treatments or newlywed photoshoot somewhere in their home town... The newlyweds will truly appreaciate the thought, no matter what it is you decide to give them. something from a registry, if they have one. Or something for their home, like china, or crystal. (A vase, crystal glasses?) Good luck.

What are weddings like in Paris?

I'm an American Wedding Planner in Paris, and my agency specializes in bi-cultural, French/American-style weddings and celebrations. I'd have to say that one of the biggest cultural differences between American and French weddings is that while a typical American wedding usually lasts around 5 hours or so, a French wedding usually lasts all day AND into the next. It starts with a civil ceremony at City Hall in the morning, and is followed by a religious ceremony, then a vin d'honneur (a small cocktail reception), followed by a 4 or 5-course meal, and then dancing. The dancing often starts between dinner courses, in order to give guests a chance to work up more of an appetite! A typical French wedding doesn't end until 3:00 or 4:00AM, or even later. That, for me, is one of the biggest differences of a French (Parisian) wedding.
