We were invited as a family to DH's cousin's wedding a few weeks ago. He doesn't see this branch of the family very often (Think christenings, weddings and funerals). We couldn't go as we already had something arranged that couldn't be changed. I sent a reply to the invite as soon as I got it - months ago - and sent the happy couple a nice "Congratulations on your wedding" card.
Now, they hadn't drawn up a gift list, they were asking for money to put towards their honeymoon. DH thinks that I should have sent some money with the card but I don't, for one I think it's a bit cheeky asking for money as a present and two we didn't go! As I've said they are not close so I don't feel guilty at only sending a card, plus our finances are not rosy at the moment either. WWY have D?
