    I thought said there was a work collection for them?

    Yes there was which he knew so I presumed that they felt that because I attended the afters that I should have got a separate gift. I certainly wasn't bothered to ask him to elaborate

    Go along, say hello and congrats to the couple.

    Give them a card, with no cash.

    Stay for a few minerals and chat to people you know, have a dance if you want, drive home.

    What's the big issue?

    That's nonsense! They will expect a present, a smaller one yes but turning up empty handed these days is frowned upon.

    Not when I got married.

    That said, I got married back when stag 'nights' were not lavish holidays and most Irish weddings were not pretentious, micromanaged consumption displays.

    I know people that feel the need to give a small present if they are invited to an afters and don't go.

    Really? you think people who go to the afters should bring a present?
    Getting asked to the afters of a wedding is frowned upon IMO.

    OP; did you go in the end? Put us out of suspension please!!!
    I went in the end. It was good for a while until the sister had a few too much to drink and picked a fight with me over nothing - old sores or something? She followed me everywhere giving a self centered rant, until my family took the issue back to our room for much crying

    Too take my mind off things, I when back out and tried cracking on to a girl, all to realise her mother and aunties were watching.
