My husband and I were invited to attend a wedding this summer... initially we were supposed to attend in person but given covid restrictions, the bride and groom limited the guest list to family-only, but are still inviting their other guests (including us) to attend virtually via Zoom. They’re also having an in-person reception next year (that we may or may not be able to attend).
I’m just wondering what is the proper etiquette for gift-giving in this situation? Of course we will get them something, but I have no idea how to even ballpark how much is appropriate to spend on a gift for a wedding that we are virtually “attending”, but aren’t actually attending? And then also if we get them something this year should we not get them something next year at the reception? Or should we JUST get them something next year at the reception? Or 2 small gifts....?
What have you all done regarding gifts if you’ve been invited to a virtual wedding? Or if you’re having one yourself, what have most of your guests given?
