[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assuming you are giving a cash gift, share how much you plan to give and any context for 2024. No, I’m not asking what you gave ten years ago!

- For a standard wedding OR a wedding that was really expensive to travel to, I give $100-150
- For a very nice black tie wedding, I give $200-$250
- ALWAYS x2 for plus one
- All in, thats probably $200-500
- If I am invited but can’t make it, I do a flat $100 from both of us
- i routinely turn down invites if I dont feel “close” because most weddings I am invited to are out of town

[b]I am of a cultural context of “cover your plate”[/b] but am well aware for a nice wedding, $200 might not be enough to cover your plate[/quote]

This sentiment is tacky no matter what your “cultural context.”

I don’t understand this thread—you have no question. You just want to shout onto the internet what you gift at weddings?[/quote]

I am the OP - the question is literally in the first sentence. Fine, il add "can you" & "share how much you plan to give and any context for 2024". Thanks for not answering the question. [/quote]

How does me answering the question help anyone? There must be almost countless threads on this already, some of them very recent, threads that I’m pretty sure include what I give—but you think adding “2024” makes this somehow new and relevant? New enough  for you to post blah blah blah declaring yourself?[/quote]

NP
Your “friends” hate you. I know this for a fact. [/quote]

Nope.

But they definitely hate people who feel the need to declare themselves all over the place. [/quote]
