as long as you have it sent to them via their registry there is no reason to physically bring it.

I had friends that got married back when we were in our late 20s and early 30s and both the guy and girl had been in their careers and both had lived on their own for a while and had plenty of stuff.
I didn't get anything for those weddings at all. That's just being greedy. They weren't just starting out as adults.

Its trashy to host a wedding where people are expected to physically bring a gift. This isn't a 2 year-old's birthday party.

Just put extra cash in her wedding dress during the money dance

Depends :
Wedding that you can drive to and not have to spend the night , yea not having a gift is kind of trashy
Wedding that is in a city where the cheapest hotel room is $350 and you have to fly there? Your gift is my presence.

If they have a registery send it to their house. There were barely any presents brought to my wedding.

Trashy to not at least offer something that is celebratory. That could be a gift or at the very least, a card. If I've thought enough about you to invite you to my wedding, take ten minutes and run into a drug store and buy a card.

You NEVER show up to a wedding with a gift. The frick is wrong with you people? Send the gift before (e.g. at the shower) or after the wedding.

To provide some context, I'm friends with the guy but only sort of. I'm surprised I was invited TBH
You have a year from the wedding date within which to get them a gift.

Every wedding I went to this year. Including one I was in. I didn't bring shite

So you choose to punish those that waited to marry until they found the right person or got their life in order first?
I mean, most people that get married, in the grand scheme of things, are not gonna really care that much about who did or didn't get them a gift (at least I didn't). But if it's people you are close to, why wouldn't you want to be generous and give them something, even if it's a small gift that you can afford?

It's trashy to bring a gift to a wedding. You order from their registry and it gets delivered, or you hand the happy couple a check.

Cheap bastard.

No

Yes, it is. I showed up to one without a gift, for a fraternity brother for whom I didn´t much care.
I now know why. He couldn´t pull women I found hot (was there for the sluts, nothing hot to be found).

If you go to the wedding, you must buy the couple a gift, preferably before the wedding. It's trashy to attend and not buy them a gift.
Posted on 6/23/16 at 8:54 pm to TheSlizzardKing
Yes. Just do the money dance and you will be fine.
