But seriously, cash is king, especially as wedding gift.

I would re-gift them the Walmart gift card that I got on my last birthday.

But seriously, just find out if they have an online registry anywhere (everyone does these days) Look for something in your price range that they actually have selected as needed or wanted. …if you don’t want to send cash.

Are they registered anywhere? If so, then they will usually put things on the registry they actually want (especially if they are younger, and moving in together.) When I got married for the first time, we went to a store and actually registered for small appliances, and other "house" goods (Towels, table linens, dishes, serving ware, etc).

The second marriage, since we were both grownups in our late 30's and both had houses we were combining into one, we didn't do that. In fact, we specifically requested "NO GIFTS"

So sure, cash and a card is nice and a very safe gift. Who COULDN"T use cash? But if they are registered, you can always go to their registry online, and pick out something in whatever price range you want to send.

Sorry, I got confused. The post above this was "Welding helmet recommendation" and I read it as "Wedding helmet recommendation" and this post as "Welding gift etiquette".

Don't mind me.

Ok, guess I need a little more info.
Not invited, not attending. Figured I'd send with the friend that is going.
No idea about a registry, but they already live together. Can't imagine they need much
Both mid 20s
We're all German/Irish. No Italians.

I guess cash it will be. Thank you much.
