[quote=Anonymous]The responses on these threads get tiresome, especially those calling others cheap or claiming you should cover the cost of your plate. The amount one gives should be based on the gifters budget and relationship. Obviously the area of the country and cultural norms also play a role. It’s tacky to invite people expecting a minimum amount. A gift isn’t an admission ticket. We received mostly $75-$100 gifts in the 90s. Our nephew is getting married soon and is from an affluent family so I don’t want to look cheap but DH’s travel expenses alone will be over $1000. We have 2 kids in college and lots of expenses so it’s a lot just for DH to attend so we probably will give $200. I hope we aren’t judged for that. [/quote]
