Dear Gentlemen,In the modern age of wedding planning and budgeting hell, is a gentleman still expected to provide his bride with a wedding day gift? After spending tens of thousands between the ring, wedding expenses, flights, and so on. I don't know if the bride is still expecting us to overload our credit cards with one more expensive item.

Dear Mr. Worries,
Wedding gift? No. You're marrying her. That's plenty.
That was easy. Now you're just on the hook for her birthday, your anniversary, Valentines Day, probably at least a fancy dinner on the anniversary of the day you met her, and your winter holiday of choice every year, presumably, for the rest of your life. And unlike gifts you might pick up for everyone else you know, you need to be thoughtful about those gifts.
But you’re fine on the wedding gift. Save your energy.
Regards,
The Gentlemen
