I am in my late 20's and my uncle in his 60's is getting married for the second time. They are having a ceremony and a dinner afterwards. What is appropriate for me to give from my boyfriend and I? Do we have to give money to 'cover the plate' or can I give some sort of gift, lenox, crystal, etc., they are not registered.

Dear Niece,
There is no rule about covering the cost of the plate. I don't know how that began, but it isn't the case.
If they didn't register, they may not want gifts. But, in any case, just give them something you think they would enjoy. It doesn't have to be expensive, just something from the heart.
Also, you don't have to give something extra expensive because it is from the both of you. It is just one gift.
