How many gifts do we buy for 1 wedding--engagement party,then bridal shower,then wedding-all invites had regis?
We got invite to engagement party w/ registry info-went and had gifts sent to adress, now have shower invite w/registry info -2 stores this time, and I assume when we get ceremony invite for Sept. that will also include registry info as well. Are we supposed to keep buying gifts for each invite? Are they all considered different,ie: "engage gift","shower" and "wedding gift"? I'm not familiar with the procedure but it's getting expensive. I thought the gift we gave originally was THE wedding gift as it was the " wedding registry" at Macy's. Please advise. I assume we just buy all three. Thanks for the help!
At an engagement party, as at any party, it is correct to bring a small hostess gift for your hostess: a box of chocolates perhaps, or a small potted plant, or a bottle of wine. It is *not* proper to bring a gift to a couple: to do so would seem encroaching, or putting pressure on the new couple, or presuming a level of very close intimacy. A new engagement is a fragile relationship, and therefore engagement parties are not gift-giving occasions.
A shower is modelled on a charity-fundraiser for a bride with no dowry. Although nowadays showers are more for fun than to provide the necessities of housekeeping, opening presents does constitute the main entertainment at a shower and a gift is therefore required. However, since the shower *is* more for fun, the gift should be nominal, and should be some clever and useful generic household item rather than an heirloom-quality gift.
The wedding present should be an item of quality meant to be cherished for as long as the marriage endures. If you wish to use the bride's registry to guide your choice of china or linens so that your choice matches her china pattern or bed-size, etiquette permits you to do so. The present should be sent to the bride's home prior to the wedding. Like you, I would hold that the gift you had sent from the registry was indeed your wedding gift to the couple, and I commend your generosity in giving a present even when the couple was so gauche as to hint that a present was desired.
Edit: one should always attempt to think the best of one's friends! I *do* appreciate kill_yr_television's having pointed out that the couple may have been asking for advice regarding their houseware choices! That is *so* much more gracious than assuming that they were expecting presents!
