Evening wedding. How much for a wedding gift for a cousin not super close with?

are you attending the reception of the cousin you're not close with?

Stick with the Registry. Are you attending the wedding? It's always safe to pick a gift where the cost, generally, represents the cost of hosting you/you and another if you're bringing someone.

The relevant part is not "evening wedding," but "not super close with."

What do you usually spend on a present to take to kid's birthday party? Multiply by 5.

In my culture the registry is for the engagement party only. It would be tacky to buy something off the registry for the wedding. Wedding gifts are checks.

Is this OP?

How many guests are in your group? I take that into account when buying wedding presents.

Yes.
$175 seems a bit light for 1 adult and 2 kids

I think it ENTIRELY depends on how much disposable income you have. If you're wealthy, I think you should give a lot more than if you're poor.
