Don't worry about a gift unless you are feeling really inspired.

Its cool. You're a guy.

Why did you agree to go to a wedding as her date after only 3 dates?? what are you her boyfriend??!! I can tell you never been to a wedding before because you are suppose to bring a check as a gift (about $100).

At weddings you don't show up for free because every extra person costs money for catering not to mention it is expected that you bring money as a gift. I just hope that she doesn't think that you are going to pay for her as well (make that $200 check).

No kid - absolutely not!!!! No gift is expected or wanted!!!! Enjoy the free beer and food - this is a man's paradise (it would be better if a virgin was involved)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What needs to happen, is the both of you need to bring one gift together. Call her up, and ask what she's bringing. Receptions always have plenty of food, so you shouldn't have a problem chipping in $30 for something.

Yeah, showing up at a wedding without a gift is widely considered a rude thing to do. If you care about being rude, and it seems that you do, chip in on something.

been to a wedding before because you are suppose to bring a check as a gift (about $100).
where the hell do you live when the people all bring a check as a gift? I got some money, but it was the EXCEPTION rather than the rule, and it was never more than $50.

Most people bring actual gifts. But most of the gifts are handled at the bridal shower. You only get gifts at your wedding from those who never made it to that.

Anyways, I would suggest backing out of going to a wedding as a date so early on in a relationship.

But if you don't, then give the couple a card. You don't need to put money in it, because you haven't known them that long, but a simple card is nice and thoughtful.

The gift is her responsibility. It might be different if you've been together with her for a long time and her brother knows you well, but that's not the case. Just go and have a good time. Shake the the poor bast@rd's hand and wish him well, that's all.

The girl is showing you off to her friends/family this is a good sign, however it doesn't mean you should show up with gifts. Just be respectful and be a man in front of everyone else. Don't worry about the kissing part, let it come when it comes.

No, you don't need to bring a gift. You are her date and you have likely never met the people getting married. As her guest, her gift covers you both.
