Re: how much do you really spend on a wedding gift?
let me explain... she is getting married OCTOBER 08, 2008, next year.... everything is planned, most has been paid for... the hall, kilts for the guys, shaws for the gals, are still undecided... she went to a class reunion 2 yrs. ago, and hooked up with her fiancee... she has changed some, since going with him... he is working in another state, they fly twice a month to be together.... they only want close family and pals to attend the wedding, which is gonna have bag pipes, catholic wedding.... i am not offended, it was my idea to make it special for family and close friends... i am more like her internet pal, and we hook up a couple times a year and go out, and such... i live 2 hrs. from her... but, she and her fiance emails me too, tell me everything and anything... i keep it to myself and they are head over heels in love.. i think they should marry soon, and then do the ceremony later... reason being both remaining widows, are in poor health... from both sides.....
i am happy to assist, the dj's will be my son and nephew... pix into dvd's.. son will do for them, decorating, son will do for them, etc... for free, just his costs, as a favor to me..........
the reception we hope will be at a country club, if we can get it booked that far in advance.....she doesn't have anyone too smart to help her... her closest friend is a co-worker who is divorced with a teen age son and she is a lil inexperienced with talking to ppl.
thanks for all the comments, i appreciate it.......
