WWYD?
If someone came to your wedding, brought a date, and didn't give you a gift, AND THEN invites you to their wedding. Do we give them a gift or no? Am I terrible for even considering not giving a gift?
Re: WWYD?
I would give a gift, and I would base how much I spent on the gift first on what I could afford and second on what my relationship is with the person.
I would not base it on if they gave me a gift or not.
P.S. I'm not trying to sound mean, snarky, or judgemental or anything like that. Just explaining that it wouldn't be an issue to me.

I guess I should clarify...this is more of a frenemy than a friend, and we've had nothing to do with her for over two years.
They did not get us a card.
My first instinct was to get them a gift, and then I was like, oh...wait...they were kind of lousy guests at our wedding (aside from the whole no gift thing, they came dressed very casually, and it was a black tie wedding).
Can't wait to meet my baby boy!

It depends on the situation. DH just went to a wedding in CA and didn't give a gift and it was likewise for when his friend came out to AZ for our wedding. Each other being there was enough.
Not to be rude/snarky, but if you are frenemies with them, why are you going?
I wouldn't, but that's just me.

We're not going. lol
I've just always sent gifts when we've rsvp'd no in the past.
I understand your situation with the traveling, that, to me, would be a gift in itself. If this were a good friend, there would be no question in my mind.
LOL @ Val

If you're not going, and it's a frenemy- I would politely decline and leave it at that.
But maybe I too am mean

I suppose i'm a meanie too because in a case like this, if they didn't bring a gift and were a pain in the butt(we had our share of those at our wedding too) I would just send them a nice card and leave it at that. If they take it personally then maybe they'll remember how they acted as guests.
Then again I'm the person who got a box of ugly plates as a regift from a couple who had gotten married a few months before us so we passed it on as a regift to a relative getting married who we weren't too fond of.
