My cousin is getting married tomorrow. I did not get an invitation, but I guess I was covered under the "Mr. & Mrs. Pom & Family" invitation that was sent to my parents because I saw her a couple of weeks ago and she asked if I was coming. I don't live at home, haven't for more than a year, and was offended because my younger sister, who is married, got her own invitation.
Do I buy a gift? I want to but I'm so mad that people still include me in my parents' invites but my sister gets her own just because she's married. I also did not receive my own invitation to the shower but again was included on the one to my mom. I could not attend anyway and did not send a gift.
Thanks!

I agree that that was quite rude of her! Any etiquette book for will tell you that. If you were in college or something,maybe that would be okay (i'm sorry, I don't remember if you're still in undergrad or not!)... maybe! But that's very rude.
My family and family friends have finally started sending me things to my own address. I think it can be hard when it's a college kid changing addresses twice a year. But for something like a wedding invitation, a simple phone call could be made to find out your address.
Perhaps you can go in on your parents' present to her? Or may I suggest buying her a copy of Emily Post's Etiquette Book?
