How much do you spend on a wedding gift?

We didn't go through the registry, yet monetary gifts were given. About $100 is average.

I usually go between $100-$150 depending on the venue. I try to go with the same amount I think my plate costs.

I always prefer getting a gift off the registry. A couple times, for friends I knew really well, I bought a gift not on their registry! If I get invited to a wedding, I still give even if I can't make it to the wedding.

It depends on who it is! It really depends on how well we know them.

Close family/super close friend $250Family/ Friend $100
Destination wedding $50

It definitely depends on my relationship with the couple, the variety of their registry (if they have one and if there's something in my price range), my current financial situation and any other expenses surrounding the event (do I have to shell out a chunk to get there, or is it close).

I think there are a variety of things to look at when deciding. If it's a more formal event with dinner and open bar, then the minimum I would give is $150 per person at least to cover the plate. Then (depending on affordability) I will try to give a bit more so the bride and groom have a bit of an additional gift. Especially if I'm very close to the couple. I feel it's unrealistic to assume that most formal weddings are any less than that. If I get invited to wedding where there is no dinner and just cocktail receptions and cash bar , then I would only do $50 -$100.

Usually we will give $100 to the couple. I didn't realize weddings were this expensive, now we will likely give more in the future. Haha.

It depends on my relationship with the person. Family, about $150 per person (so $300 if both hubby and I go). A close friend, $100 per person. All other friends, $50-75 per person.

BUT it really depends on how much you want, and can, contribute. Anything is always appreciated. They invited you because they want to share their day with you, not because they want you to bankroll their wedding (and if they do, they're not a friend IMO).

It depends on how close I am with the person, but generally speaking, I aim to match what I think the meal would cost for myself and my husband attending the wedding.

Im typically a $50 cash gift kinda person. That being said most weddings i have attended recently have been out of town and it has cost me a couple hundred dollars between time of work, gas, hotel, ferry expenses, etc to attend. When you add it all up i just cant afford to give any more than that as a gift when you have multiple weddings to go to in a year.

I've never actually bought a wedding gift as I've only attended weddings as a kid but I don't expect my guests to spend any more than $50. I don't really care to get gifts though Ive met people who expect at least $100 per gift.

I would usually go about 100 or so. Unless the couple says they only want money. In which case I give a little more.

It depends on how close I am to the person and what I can afford. The last wedding I was a guest at I made an afghan because I knew they would appreciate it and I really couldn't afford much else. I would generally say between $60-100
