Is It Appropriate To Give A Baby Gift To A Pregnant Bride Along With The Wedding Gift?
Giving the wedding gift and the baby gift in the same giving would kind of look like you were trying to make a point …. sort of in the same snide category as bringing a box of ‘Minute Rice’ to throw at the bridal couple. Unless the wedding and the delivery are going to simultaneous, then the gifts shouldn’t be simultaneous either.
No, keep the two separate. At some point after the baby is born, send a gift if you still wish.
I think your best bet is to wait till the Baby Shower
I think that is a really nice gesture. She probably didn’t invite you to the shower because you don’t really know each other that well and all.
Personally I think it is a great gesture. Just put a little card on it (something for the baby) or give it to the grooms parents before the wedding and they could give it to them at a later date. I bet that some others will probably do something like that too if they are not invited to the baby shower.
On two different days, sure.
its ok and tasteful. thats what my family did for me
Wow, that would be tacky…. just wait to the baby shower or mail it to her house.
No! Do not give a baby gift until after the baby is born. If something were to happen, and the baby died – it would be incredibly tragic, and then the couple would have your gift right there to look at everyday with no baby for it. Always wait for the baby to come, then give that gift.
Sure it is, I am sure the happy couple would love both gifts.
Uhhh…. NO! Wait until the Baby shower.
No baby presents involved with the wedding. That is not why you were invited in the first place. Just wait until the baby is born. It is very nice of you to think of doing that though. Most people wouldn’t.
I would just politely give the baby gift to her fiance at another time if you know him better. Just say you understand that you won’t be invited to the baby shower but that you wanted to get something anyway. I’m sure it would mean a lot to both of them. I would definitely keep the wedding and baby gifts seperate.
theres nothing wrong with that. but its called a baby shower so that should happen some time.
