Bit of debate in the office here. I always thought that the standard was 50 a head kind of thing. Apparently I'm low balling and way off. What do yas think is appropriate?

€100 a head unless they gave me less for my wedding and in that case I just match it. Kept a list of what everyone gave me on my big day which I refer to before hitting the ATM

Anything between £70 and £150 depending on how close they are to you, how much you respect them, and how much you care if they think you're a miserable bollocks

Thankfully haven't had to go to a wedding in 2 years. Went through a phase where I was at one a month for about a year.
Usually give €150 between me and the wife. €250 if it's a real close friend. One of my mates gave me €400 for my wedding and he didn't even bring a partner with him. I'm dreading when he gets married.

200 for a family member, 100 per head for a friend or other relative.

Generally your trying to compensate for the cost of you being at the wedding. I generally go for 100 per person - so €200 for the two of us or €250 if they are close friend or particularly fancy/expensive wedding.

Usually 100 to 150 depending how close you are to them. The other cheeky kants who send a wedding list or ask for money they can either fück right off or get a voucher for some sh*te shop over 200km away from them.

There is no rule in wedding etiquette about presents. You don't have to do anything. But if you wish €100 per head is generous when you are a friend. The degree of relationship should be factored in.
Wedding registries are the best for guests and are brilliantly instructive. That's not "cheeky" at all. As a guest at many weddings I love seeing a list. Edited by Het-field - 19 Sep 2017 at 3:47pm |

Usually stick 100 in an envelop for the 2 of us for weddings at home. This as we have to fly over for it and book accommodation etc, so I keep it at 50 each.
