My wife and I are attending a wedding on Saturday....they're her close friends.

Is $75 ($150 as a couple) from each of us enough?

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
Back in 2018, I was apart of and/or attented 11 weddings.


Shiit fukked up my wallet being groomsman twice and a best man.


Each wedding I attended, several out of town... from 100 - 300 cash gift... depending on my proximity to the couple.


I hate being perceived as cheap, so a Benji is minimum.


Went to two weddings this summer, 300 went to my cousin (that was in cali) and a coworker's son got 100 from me (local, so no biggie).



Really depends bruvvuh.

I don’t think the price should matter so long as it’s something useful right?

Like if you get them a door ass blender that’s like $70 and they use it everyday then that should be good enough right?

Standard is price of the plate. So if the wedding venue charges $200 per head you and your girl should give $400.

But if you're young and thats too much $150 is good

i think it depends on the culture honestly. im going to a jewish wedding to a colombian. i think giving 100 to the jewish rich guy is petty, and all the colombian weddings ive been to never had gifts. :jbhmm:

but, its out of town so i think they'll just be glad i showed up honestly lol

If she considers them close friends then you better up it to at least $300(from both of you) if she isn't doing anything else to help out.

You don't want to hear about yall being considered cheap.
