Question-SWR-I'm going to a wedding alone

next weekend, I am not really good friends with the couple, but I was invited to the shower, and I went to the bachlorette party. What would an appropriate gift be?

TIA-you guys always know what to do!!!!

Well, a check I suppose. The amount is up to you though.

Or a kitten. There aren't enough instances of pets-as-gifts, in my opinion.

I was thinking a gigantic ceramic frog would be good...or potholders....

I meant how much money silly

I would give $100 but that's me.

Where's the wedding?

Or something you think they really wanted off the registry which is something I have done where I can't spend as much $$ as I may feel like I 'should' if I was giving $$.

I don't know if that made sense.



Sometimes I also like doing the registry as a wedding gift for someone I am not close to because I think giving $$ seems a little awkward.

My first suggestion - money.
Would you feel more comfortable revisiting their registry and getting a thing or two from there instead of giving money?

Depends on the person - I'd give 150 I think. I'm not really good at this.

I like the pet idea. Who wouldn't love a little kitten curling around their cocktail dress? Very Audrey Hepburn!

I'm thinking about $125....maybe $150....I blew a lot of money at her bachlorette party, so I feel like I should give more-I don't know....

Split the difference and make it $125.
