If I had a wedding shower thrown for me, and someone couldn't come, I would not care if they did not send a gift.
But, if they are a good friend, it may be nice to send a little something, just to show you were thinking about them.

I have also been invited to one next week, and am not able to go due to another engagement. I AM sending a gift, but have been in this situation before, and did NOT send one. I think it depends on how close you are to the person getting married. I did not send ne the first time, because she was a woman that m husband works with, and I did not know her well.This time, I am close to the woman getting married, and would have liked to have gone had I been able to. Hope this helps you make up your mind about the gift.

It's normally proper to send something, it's not required to give a wedding gift, but giving one at a shower is normally expected. If you can not aford one or choose to give the bride one later you can send a card and a small note telling that you are sorry you could not attend but wish her the best.

of course you are not required to send a gift. the person may or may not hold it against you if you don't. most people do send a gift if they are invited to a wedding, and especially if they are invited to a shower because those invited to showers/teas are usually the closer family/friends of the bride & groom.

Yes, proper etiquette rules state that you are supposed to send a gift to a wedding shower even if you cant attend.

It's optional. If you really like the girl, send something. I don't think it is a rule of etiquette you send a gift, although you do need to reply to the invitation.

It would be nice to send them something off their registry...you can make it small if you want to but when the wedding present comes better make it nice.

I think if you would have gone if you could have then you should send a gift, otherwise don't send one.

You don't HAVE to send a gift.
BUT, if you are close to this person I would give a gift.
