As I understand it, there's no obligation to give a wedding present...and if you want to, you have a year in which to do it.

Many of my friends married when I was a poor grad student. The joke was always that my PRESENCE was my PRESENTS.
They were all just so happy I was able to be there. I figure I'll double up on their 50th anniversary gifts. 
You too can help me fight cancer, and get a lovely cookbook for your very own! My team's cookbook is for sale Click here to order. Proceeds go to our team's fundraising for the Philly Livestrong Challenge!

POST SHOWER REPORT:
The re-gift was a hit.
Nicest present (I thought). One of the woman bought some tough cotton with a beautiful print and sewed a basic pocketed apron and two potholders. She then wrapped that by folding it up so that the outside fabric was the "wrapping", tying with a pretty ribbon, and inserted a wooden spoon and fork in the pockets.
Now, she stays home all day with her kid.
But, I looked at that apron and I thought, I could do that.I can do five more miles.

indigoiis -- I'm glad things went well. Sometimes we stress about stuff more than we need to.
Possegal, I like your way of thinking!!
