And I know it's probably just the backwards farming community I hail from, they don't think things through, and you have to be married to be a "real" person. It just upsets me that my sister gets her own invitations, Christmas cards, etc., and I don't.
And my mom committed a faux pas by RSVP-ing my other sister's boyfriend. I yelled at her. The invite did not say "and guests".
I probably will get them a gift but there will be hell to pay if I don't get a thank you! To my address!!! Should I include my address in the card with the gift? That way they do have it.

An update on this wedding that will astonish all of you.
I did get a thank you note, at my parents' house, that first thanked me for the gift and card and then went on to apologize for the presence of alcohol at the reception. "Had we known about the alcohol sooner we would have stopped the serving of it. It was against both of our wishes and we apologize if it offended you."
I said to my family, the only reason they should be apologizing about the alcohol is because it wasn't an open bar!!! Our whole family is all WTF??? Especially since it was at a golf club, and planning events like I do for work, I know that if you say no to something the venue typically doesn't go against your wishes.
Oh, and my cousin is pregnant, and due in January. Those good Christian people are busy! My sister asked if it was going to be a premature 9 lbs. baby.
