If you like them, sure, why not.

"Old School" etiquette dictates that a wedding gift is given only when there's been a formal announcement made.....elopement or organized event doesn't matter, it's the "union" that's being celebrated.

In this day and age, traditions have been thrown out the proverbial window and anything goes, or so it seems. Honestly, I prefer the old way of doing things and would "honor" the wedding couple when they formally announce their marriage. How they were married is of little significance.

If, after a weekend of heavy hoo-haas, they pop in and announce they got married, say "congratulations" and let it go at that. If they plan a reception, or send formal announcements....reciprocate with a gift.

hmm.... it depends on how well you know the couple. And also if you were invited by the couple to their home or spend time with the couple after their wedding. As long as you feel comfortable giving a gift and know them well enough to feel that there will be no awkwardness involved, sure you can.

I would if they have a reception party later or somehow announce their marriage to you. It would be nice of you.

ONLY if you are invited to a reception of some sort.
