Whenever you’re invited to a celebration, it’s a nice gesture to give gifts to the inviters. Unless the inviters themselves explicitly state that they don’t want any gift, your presents can act as a token of appreciation for them having you in the celebration. However, if you’re not invited in the first place, would you still have to give something to the hosts?
While that question sounds like it has a very definitive and easy answer, for the Redditor hiddenconcert, it doesn’t. In her post in Reddit’s Am I The A-Hole community, she asked the community if it was fine that she won’t give gifts to the couple that didn’t invite her to their wedding. Her dilemma was brought upon by her father insisting that she give something to the couple to be “a bigger person.” Find out what the community thinks of her situation below!
