gift for destination wedding.

My brother is getting married in Jamaica in July. So far his wedding is costing all of us a couple thousand. The room is cheap for the 4 days but since its 4th of july weekend the airfare is insane. Now, they had an engagement party a while ago and they got money and gifts then. The fiance is also having a shower and is registered so we are getting something for that. Are we required to really give them a gift at the wedding? My family had a hard time paying for the trip as it is and they are wondering are they also supposed to give them money for this? Its all confusing and Im probably going to give a small gift anyway but my mom and uncle were curious whether they were obligated to or not after having to spend so much to go to the wedding.

You give what you can. IMO going to a destination wedding is a gift in itself. Your bro should understand and not be expecting a gift. It is a huge cost.
