    Towards the end of the night it should be fine - but obviously don't press it, if she's not keen on doing it then.

    I hope you get exactly the reaction you're after!!

    Most weddings I have been to, the bridesmaids and maid of honour opened the presents and wrote the present on the card attached so the bride and groom knew who it was from.

    I was too busy socialising and catching up with interstate visitors to open presents at my wedding.

    Really????? Oh my goodness - opening the presents was so much fun, we did half the morning after at the recovery BBQ and the rest when we got home from our honeymoon, I would have been devastated if my sister (MOH and only bridesmaid) had done it instead!

    Sorry, off topic Beatrix - I would ask at the end, I would have been happy to open something special at my wedding

    I don't believe the wedding reception is the right place to do it.

    I agree that you should make a time before or after the wedding to take their present too them.
