Or would it be an appropriate response to this unsatisfying event?

For a normal wedding, I think it’s $200, but that is a bit out of our league, and the whole thing was very hodgepodge. My husband wants to send $25, but I don’t know if that’s an insult.It is if you send it in cash. But the monetary equivalent, in the form of an even minimally thought-out present, will be far less obvious in its intended message. Which is, of course, that a virtual wedding was not worth a higher price of admission.

Some presents become a beloved favorite toy, while others miss the mark. That’s to be expected of gifts from strangers. My mom then urges me to write thank-you notes to her friends. I feel that these gifts are actually meant for the grandmother to give the grandchild — not for the mother and the child, with the grandmother acting as a delivery service. Thus, I feel that if my mom wants them to receive a thank-you note, she should be the one to write it.
