Please give what you want and can afford. The seriousness of the relationship I might pay most attention to (ie 2 months or 2 years, near engagement or new.)
it says spouse

My first read was "muggle class" - sounded like an reformed Slytherin asking for advice.

I spend about 2-300 each for a few gifts on both, maybe a little more on daughter because she has more wants and then give a joint check for 500.

Haha Muddle class was meant for us as we don't have unlimited resources.

I received $150-200 in check/ maybe gifts from iLs in similar situation.

My parents spent equal amounts on our gifts and my in-laws do the same. It would be weird for there to be a big disparity. Both sets of parents spend more on the grandkids then the adults, which is also how it should be.
