Hi-I would say an amount of 75$ is safe
for the advice..... I'm going to give $100. I decided $50. X 2 since I will bring a guest.
If it's not too late to answer, this is what I would do. If it's just a casual friend I'd give $50 if just you are invited. If you are invited with a guest, I'd say $75. It kind of depends how close you are to the bride/groom and their families and it also depends on how lavish the affair is set to be.
That's just my opinion.
I have given $50 in the past. Seems like the right amount. Gift cards are great - they can buy what they want. :)
Under the circumstances I would do $50. That is in my budget,
HELP.................I still need more advice on the $$ amount for a wedding gift of a casual friend!!! I will not be attending the reception......
the gift card is a great idea. It is difficult these days because usually everything is so expensive...dishes, etc. I think the couple can always pool together the gift cards etc.and buy one or two expensive things they really like.
Thanks....I know what you mean about cash.... I'm actually thinking of a gift card.
in the range of 50.00 in either a gift certificate or I guess cash...I always perfer buying a gift...even if I always enclose the gift receit with it so they can return it if they want the cash...evry good store will do the gift receit. I think alot of people do cash these days but it obviously less personal. But for a casual friend and you are not attending I would max. give 75.00. Hope this helps.
