[quote=Anonymous]I think the earlier posters caught it all, but... definitely encourage attending the service. If there's a legit conflict, include that in the RSVP - otherwise it's like having dessert (the party!) without eating your vegetables :) Service dress: depends on how traditional the venue is, but dress/skirt/pants - preferably not jeans, and not sleeveless. Ideally length to the knees, but my Jewish daughter violates that suggestion all the time. Party: party clothing! depends on the venue and the kids. You can always ask, or your daughter can ask her friends. We honestly didn't care and some folks wore sneakers and jeans, but most wore fancier duds. Gift: it's traditional to give a gift. If it's cash or a check, do what's comfortable (multiples of $18 are traditional for good luck. We usually do $108 for friends, sometimes $72... it's also fine to not do a gift if that's better for your family. Maybe do something small and definitely a card. Hope it's fun and interesting for your daughter! And do feel free to join for the service too! [/quote]
