Should a gift be sent to the couple in return of the invitation, even if we are not attending the Wedding?

Experts exclaim that it’s customary to give a token of love even if it’s just a token, but it should reflect your relationship with the couple. The fact that you are not attending the wedding for some reason, doesn’t alter the truth of the bonding you share, or the warmth you feel for them. Go ahead and wrap your good wishes for the couple in the form of your thoughtful gift with a compassionate message attached, stating why you couldn’t make it. This might also be considered as the compensation of your absence though.
