[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]$200 per guest, so $400 a couple. I am planning my wedding in DC now. Honestly $200 is probably on the “acceptable” side- $250 is more reasonable.[/quote] You are going to be disappointed with your haul.[/quote] Hah - all im saying is that catering prices are all in the $180-$240 range and this is pretty in-line with what my friends also tend to give. A lot of my friends are starting to get married which is probably why they're more attune with catering prices and the concept of "cover your plate". I am in the boat of - giving an extra $100 isn't going to be something I'm up at night about. I realize i am incredibly privileged and can afford to be generous. [/quote] The idea of covering your plate is gross, and I hope it goes away soon.[/quote] ? I have only ever seen it on DCUM. Had no idea it was a thing when I got married. I had no expectation that someone should "pay me back" for being invited to my wedding. Why even have guests if you feel that way?[/quote] It’s definitely the expectation in the NY/NJ area. I don’t think it is a common notion in DC. [/quote] It's extremely tacky. [/quote] I agree. The answer to this question is always “give what you can afford”. [/quote] + 1, especially if you are incurring travel costs to attend. [/quote]
