Looking for advice and figured maybe some of you went to showers for OOT brides before...
FI's cousin is getting married and his family is throwing a shower for the cousin's FI. I have never talked to the cousin's FI before but everyone in the family is going so I said I'd go too (and hopefully finally meet/talk since we're both marrying into the same family). She's registered at several stores so I went out and got her a gift. Today I went back on their website and noticed on the registry page they added a note saying to keep in mind the couple lives on the west coast and will be commuting back and forth for wedding events (east coast).
I mentioned it to FI and he said "Oh yeah, my mom told me today she just bought them a gift card since they're traveling." Now I feel like I'm going to look stupid when I show up tomorrow with an actual gift. It's a brownie pan with a carrying case so it's packaged tightly (i.e. nothing will break) and could be shoved in a suitcase easily, but now I'm doubting myself.
Should I go return the gift and either buy a gift card or re-buy it online to have it shipped to their home? Or should I still give the gift and let them decide what to do about it?
