To whom to give gifts?

woman; white woman; question

Dear Polite One,

My sister is hosting a bridesmaid brunch the day of my rehearsal. Do I need to get her a thank you gift?

I've planned to give a corsage to my greeters. Is this their gift?  Do I give gifts to all the parents or just the ones contributing?

Hello Nov. Bride,

Many couples are paying for their own weddings these days, so giving those who contribute a gift is a great idea.  Perhaps a gift basket or a gift certificate to a nice restaurant would be a good gift for those who didn't contribute cash. A gift for your sister isn't necessary, but flowers and a thank you note is typical. Your greeters don't require gifts.

Sincerely,

The Polite One

Dissed my gift; wanted cash!

Gift for out of state shower?

Do I give a wedding gift if I’ve already given a shower gift?
