The biggest problem with weddings is that you end up paying more for each guest than you receive in gifts.

Last time I checked you don't have to give a gift when you go to a wedding. Yes it is appropriate but not required as to etiquette standards. When a couple gets married and sends out an invite to someone, it should be because they want to share their special day with their family and friends, NOT because they want to get a gift- that is extremely cheesey and inappropriate.
And ladies/gents take it from me, even if people who show up don't give a gift you are supposed to send a thank you for the people who come anyhow. It's very tasteless not to.
Along those lines, you also shouldn't wait forever to send out a thank you...Very rude.
