What is the 'expected/normal' gift for guests to give?

Original post by FunBride

I've always thought: for a couple, $225-250

for an individual $100 - 125

is that about right??

We give $250 to most but $500 to close friends and family.

That's what I'm trying to figure out now for a wedding I'm attending down in DC this weekend! If FH and I didn't have 7 other weddings besides our own this year, I'd give more than what we can afford to do.

We always try to cover our plate plus some. So usually 200 for the couple. Unless its family/close friend. Then we give a little more.

we give $250 as a couple, and a little bit more if it's a close friend/family.
