[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you got caught in family/regional differences. I’m the same. My husband’s family (Asian background *and* from the northeast) only give money. My family (wasps from the south) only give items, never money. And like you, always sends presents ahead. My grandmother would rise from my grave and haunt me if I gave someone a check for their wedding or took a present to the wedding. 😄 I generally just let my husband be in charge of presents for his family. He knows the expectations and will consult with his mother to make sure we give the right amount. And since he’s the one doing it, my grandmother won’t haunt me! No big deal, just reply to say you sent the present (and specify what it was) to the house before the wedding. (But wow, I feel like it was kind of rude of the MOB to inquire)[/quote] Same. Except it would be my dear departed Mother that would haunt me. [/quote]
