What should we give our nephew as a wedding present and we were not present at the wedding?

Kat D asked:


We knew that they were engaged and were planning on having a quiet wedding but were not sure as to when. He was married by a justice of the peace with only his parents present over Easter weekend. My sister (his mother) called me the following day to let me know that they were married. So far we have no details of a planned wedding celebration for the newlyweds.

    If you feel like getting something I think a gift card is your best bet.

    Send a lovely card and a check. Newlyweds can ALWAYS use money and it is always appropriate. Hope this helps!

    wait to see if they are going to have a large party for everyone to attend, buy something for the house

    A check or gift card is always appropriate for any wedding. Newlyweds could always use either one.

    If you want to give a gift then I would talk to your sister and see if there is anything they need and if not then get them a gift card, we can all use a gift card every now and then! Good luck!

    Talk to your sister and see if there is anything they particularly need or want. Otherwise, sending a nice card and a check would be appropriate. Even if they do have a wedding celebration, you’ve already given them their gift, you would not have to give another. I think it’s very thoughtful of you to honor their marriage, especially since it was such a small affair and you were unable to attend. Kudos to you.

    are they getting a new house? if so, buy something for a new home. towels, dishes, ect

    if you dont think they need anything for their home, maybe gift cards

    Whatever is in your heart. I gave this to my mom when she remarried after 20 years, she loves it. These are great gifts.

    This company personalized wind chimes, you can say
    anything, show your love, blessings, whatever. They
    even have an inscription page if you cant think of
    anything to say.

    Great selection of chime colors,sizes, and different wind sail shapes.
