I was invited to a friend's wedding (not a close friend, but a casual friend) next week. I'm a little behind on getting the gift since I was just a tad short on the cash.... Anyways, I was also invited to the shower and originally accepted, but at the last minute called her cuz something came up and I couldn't attend.
My question is since I didn't attend the shower, even though she was originally expecting me, am I obligated now to get her 2 gifts??? 1 for the shower, and one for the wedding??? Keep in mind she's only a casual friend of mine, we're not family or really close or anything.... And if I do get 2 gifts, should I give both at the wedding, or sent to her???
Sry, I'm only 25, and she's the first of my friends really to get married, don't have much experience in weddings. My dad thinks I owe her 2 gifts now, while I feel that since I didn't attend I'm not obligated to get her the shower gift. I don't see a reason to give 2 gifts. Again if she were family I might feel more obligated, but I don't feel she's expecting anything big from me anyway.
Please, someone tell me the right thing to do, I'm running out of time, lol...
