[quote=Anonymous]We had a blacktie wedding. Some of DH's relatives came in suits instead. We didn't care. WE knew they were from more modest means and an area of the country where black tie was outside the norm. No big deal. As for wedding gifts, giving cash is what is tacky, not the amount. Do not give cash. Buy them a beautiful gift after the wedding and wrap it and drop it by their house. It is perfectly appropriate to do this up to 12 months after the wedding. Go to a web site like "One Kings Lane" or "Joss & Main," buy a really nice tray or neutral serving piece or prettv throw at a great price and don't worry about spending $200. Its not the amount you spend, its the thought and it takes a lot more time and effort to give a beautiful gift than cash anyway.[/quote]
