so my mom and my FMIL were talking about gifts and all that ..so my mom said just what was expected as gifts..not like i would get mad if it was anyother way..but i always do at least waht i expected the person paid for to have me at their wedding
she thinks that anything more then $30 is just crazy
when my mom said her and my step dad never go to a wedding and give anything less then like $200
maybe this is just aitalian-NY thing to give a lot..
i dont know how to handle this
only because we are not registering

Re: possible dilema
Yea, I think it's a New York thing in general. I come from the west coast and in my family if you give money that sends a tacky message. LIke you didn't have time to go buy a gift. We have a money dance where people pin money to the bride and groom. We are gonna stick to the envelopes. If my fam. and friends bring gifts we will appreciate it jsut as well.
