to share my experience – when my brother was getting married, we strongly asked my bhabi’s family not to give any gifts to our family. We wanted to stop this custom…but her mother was offended…she was like this is what she did for her older daughter and this is what she wanted to do for her younger one…and i think they gave to the aunts and uncels too, but we did not want them to at all.
now my brother in law is getting married, and my husband is the one who is the head of the family, and i plan on giving gifts to the bride’s mother and sister, and bhabis. Inshallah.
