Maybe I've been to entirely too many weddings over the years.. but ... you seriously would expect to get a gift of any value without feeding or boozing your guests? Cash bars, which are quite common in New England, are tacky enough, but no food? No food - no gift... (etiquette says, that the monetary value of the gift should be what the couple spends per head at the reception - cheap snacks costs about 75 cents per head? I'm not sure a 75 cent gift would be appreciated
