Wedding Present

I'd have a hard time giving cash. We have wedding presents we've never used, married in '86.

But when I see them, they remind me of the person. However, those are my values. Material girl wants cash, give her cash.

How about a gift card to the casino buffet?

Snap, are you invited to the wedding? Is there a shower and are you invited to that?

If you work with her and not invited to anything, give her Best Wishes and leave it at that.

If you are invited to the wedding and not the shower, you can also give her Best Wishes and leave it at that.

If you are invited to the shower, then you can get her something personal--maybe a piggy bank for all that cash she's going to get from other people.

Wedding is this Saturday, I passed on the shower as I had other plans. I wouldn't feel right not getting her something.

I think a gift card is fine. Are they setting up a new house? BB&B is a good idea then. If they aren't, maybe shoot for something they like to do together (besides casinos!). Maybe REI if they like outdoor stuff, or to a local winery or wine store...or maybe their favorite restaurant... make it a bit personal, you know?

Yeah, they'll be setting up an apartment here in town. They actually live in Sacramento, but will stay here during the week while she works. He's retired, lucky dog.
