[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why does it matter how many people in the family are invited? Hosts don’t expect to be “reimbursed” via gifts … I’d suggest $500 in this situation. [/quote] I got married in 1998 and $500 was going rate for families. I had a very modest wedding but even in 1998 cost me around $100 a person just for actually meal. Add in DJ, limos, flowers, hosting rehearsal dinner my mom doing breakfast next day it was like $150 a person in 1998. We were paying out own wedding and at time I made $55k and wife made 55k. So yea be nice to at least cover the food you are. $500 a family of five in 1998 was good as covered most of cost. Today in 2024 $500 is a restaurant bill for a family in a nice restaurant sadly.
