Spinoff of BP gifts.... what are you spending - or - what do you think is appropriate to spend/want to spend? Poll

You don't have to post what you are spending, but, I'm curious as to what the average is.... so, you can just vote if you want!!


ETA: I believe I will wind up in the $100 - $150 range...... and the $150 - $200 range for my MOH.

I bought the girls their dresses. I have 4 girls in the bp and 2 of them are my little sisters so I didnt want them to stress out about the money.

Fh hasnt picked a gift but thinks I was crazy for buying the dresses.

Including Jr Bms, I have 10 girls so I dont want to spend THAT much. But i keep seeing all these cute things I want to get them! So i think i'll be around the 100 mark.

$70 is great! Don't worry about it...... you are spending SO much on everything else..... your BP just wants to be a part of your day, and, they will appreciate anything you do for them!

Well I am spending around 200. For my MOH, BM, and Koumbarri, I am spending around 500 only because its a tradition for us. I wouldnt tell you to do that.

I'll probably spend about 70 dollars per bridesmaid etc.

I saw a GREAT website for groomsmen gifts
My FH got these for a wedding he was and he was so excited. These cufflinks are awesome.www.cuffdaddy.com

This is new to me too..

but they buy the favors., and all of the 'religous items', so they are going to shell out alot of money so I think I would have to hook them up yaknow.
