destination wedding - gift question

Hello! I have a random question - FI and I are heading to Clearwater for his brothers wedding. Should we give them their gift after the ceremony, or wait a couple weeks for the reception? They are leaving Clearwater right after the ceremony and going someplace else in Florida for the rest of their vacation / honeymoon. FI thinks they could use the $$ for the rest of their vacation.

    If you are giving $$, then I'd say give it after the ceremony.If it's an item, then I'd wait until the reception.

    Agreed with PPs, if you're giving money, give it after the ceremony; if it's an item, wait until they return home.Also, hijacking a bit- I LOVE LOVE the bouquet in your sig pic!  Where did you find it?

    Thanks!  I'm stealing it for inspiration :)  Are those your wedding colors?

    Steal away! I'm flattered! My colors are green, blue, and brown. I'm trying to match everything to the 50 spools of ribbon I bought on a whim at Michael's. There's a pic in my bio if you're interested. Thanks!

    Oh, I love those colors!  Just checked out your bio and I am totally impressed with all your DYI.  Those big lanterns were an awesome find!
