Jenny Says So Podcast
In this episode of Jenny Says So , Jenny tackles the tricky topic of wedding gift expectations and whether guests should feel obligated to give one—especially when attending a wedding already comes with significant costs. Responding to a heartfelt listener question from Guilt-Stricken Wedding Guest in Wisconsin , Jenny breaks down the financial realities of being a wedding guest, the social pressures around gift-giving, and why celebrating love shouldn’t come with a price tag. She challenges the idea of quid pro quo in weddings, emphasizing that gifts should come from a place of joy, not obligation. Hello Jenny, As a wedding guest, what should you be expected to pay the couple as a gift? I am in a very tight place financially, so the past few weddings that I have attended that have required travel, hotels, new outfits, etc., I haven’t given any sort of gifts. Is that awful? I feel bad. What are my options if I can’t gift the couple what they deserve? Help! Thank you. From navigating tight budgets to finding thoughtful, affordable ways to show your support, Jenny shares practical advice for guests who may feel guilty about not giving a traditional gift. She also highlights the importance of self-care, setting financial boundaries, and shifting the focus back to what truly matters—celebrating the couple’s love. Whether you’re planning a wedding, attending one soon, or simply rethinking the way we approach gifting, this episode offers a refreshing, judgment-free take on modern wedding etiquette.

This week on Jenny Says So , Jenny tackles a question from a listener, Guilt About Gifts in Georgia , who’s unsure about the etiquette of bringing gifts when visiting someone’s home. From housewarming parties to casual get-togethers, they wonder when a gift is expected—or if it’s even necessary. Hi Jenny! I have a question about gifts for you. What’s your take on bringing “gifts” to someone’s house when you go over? Housewarming, hanging out, coming to visit, parties, etc. Do you bring a gift? If so, what do you bring? How do you determine when it’s appropriate or not? Is it different based on who it is? For example, Friends, family, neighbors, colleagues, acquaintances, strangers? I didn’t grow up in a house with much gift giving, so I always felt like I never learned the “rules” around that stuff. Any help would be appreciated! Signed, Guilt About Gifts in Georgia Jenny breaks down the nuances of guest gifts, reassuring listeners that while a small token of appreciation is always thoughtful, showing up empty-handed is perfectly fine, especially if the host insists. The key is understanding context, relationships, and cultural expectations rather than following rigid rules. Jenny shares practical insights on navigating gift-giving with confidence, emphasizing that a simple gesture—like bringing dessert, a bottle of wine, or even just asking if the host needs anything—can go a long way. She also explores how different cultures view guest gifts, the role of re-gifting, and why assuming the best intentions in social interactions helps create a more welcoming environment. If you’ve ever stressed about whether to bring a gift, this episode will help you approach it with ease and authenticity.
