It’s the height of wedding season, and while I don’t go to too many weddings, I am in a bit of a quandary on what the appropriate amount to spend on a gift.
I found a breakdown on Style Me Pretty that kind of outlined the “standards” depending on your relationship with the bride and/or groom. While I thought the breakdown {which starts at the $75 mark} was a little steep, it gave me a good idea on where to draw the line for higher-priced gifts based on their role in my life.
Personally, I always like to pick something off of the gift registry–just to make sure they are getting exactly what they want. And I’ve kind of settled into a routine of $50, unless we know them really well, then I might go up to $100.
Thinking about the whole gift-giving obligation made me wonder what the “norm” is, though–if there is such a thing as normal? 😉
So, what do YOU spend on wedding gifts? Do you spend more depending on who they are? Break it down for me…
