Our friend is pretty clueless, to the point that he may have simply forgotten to give us a gift or card entirely, or perhaps thought that being there (he's from out of town) to congratulate us in person was enough. It wouldn't be a question of finances for him.
It's caused a bit of a quandry, though, since we're worried he gave a gift/card that got lost the day of the wedding. We don't want to embarass him, or seem greedy, but if he gave us a gift that was lost/stolen, we'd like to find out, and also thank him properly, rather than just saying 'thanks for coming' in our thank you note.
'Just ask him' is the tack we'll need to take (subtleties don't work with him), but the question is, how? It's a touchy subject, because it's very possible he's just forgotten, and also because it inherently implies that a gift was expected.
