Do I have to give another wedding gift?
After a co-worker eloped, we had a lunch for her and all give nice gifts. Later we found out that she was paid to marry him for his immigration and that he is gay. Now 4 years later she is getting married again. This time we have all been invited. We are all confused and some are mad. What should we do?

I would not go to the wedding or send a gift because I don't hang out with people who commit felonies.

What do you mean, she's getting married "again?" Is it to the same guy? If so, this isn't a wedding and she's not getting married. It's a gift grab and I wouldn't have anything to do with it, including attending.
If it's a different guy, I still wouldn't want any part of it, because I don't hang out with people who commit felonies. She should be in prison, both for the reason she got married and then getting paid for it. These are both federal fraud offenses. And if I knew someone who did this, I'd report it anonymously to the authorities.

This lady is bad news. She took advantage of you and your coworkers and she committed some serious crimes in the process. Who the hell knows what her motives are this time around? Decline her invitation and stay far, far away from this wedding. As for a gift, remember, a gift is never required in the first place. If you don't feel a need to buy her anything (and no one would blame you after her behavior), don't bother.

I understand that you are/were upset with her for the trickery from her first marriage but no one is perfect and we all occasionally do dumb things. Just because she did an ill advised thing in the past, doesn't mean that she shouldn't be shown love and support now. That's a very cold way to look at things don't you think?
That being said, I wouldn't go all out. If you bought her a very nice gift before, then do something more simple for her this time. Don't snub her all together due to a mistake that she made.
