I am attending a wedding for which I already attended a bridal shower. I brought a gift from the registry to the shower. One friend told me gifts at a wedding are innappropriate and the bridal shower gift is sufficient. Another told me guest should give money at the wedding ($25 per guest). Is the bridal shower gift enough?

These are two separate events so you will give one gift for the shower and another gift for the wedding. If you choose to buy a gift then please send it to the home of the bride before the wedding. This way the bride doesn't have to worry about transporting gifts on the day of the wedding or worry about theft or loss of the gifts or cards.
It is considered appropriate, in some areas, to bring an envelope to the wedding. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".

What if one has already gone to considerable time and expense to host a shower? Is an additional wedding gift required?

Yes, these are two separate events. The gift does not have to be expensive. If you are crafty perhaps a handmade gift can be given? If not, then choose a gift within your budget. That is all that is expected of an gift giver. Give from the heart. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
