Nope, most weddings we've been to each gift has a card on the outside
saying who it is from. That's the card I'm talking about.

When our son was in college he and a couple of friends used to go to
wedding receptions in the college town he lived in. Just find one going
on, dress nicely and walk in and join the crowd. Eat the food, drink the
booze, and then leave quietly. Claims he never got caught, takes
chutzpah and he had lots of that when he was young.
