One of the most common questions people ask me is,., “How much should I spend on a wedding gift? Do I have to spend as much as they spent on my dinner? Do I have to spend more if it’s a fancy wedding / less if it’s a casual wedding?” Generally your budget and how close you are to the bride and groom should determine how much you spend. “No but how much would you spend?” they ask.

Most of the time I spend around $150 on a wedding gift. For my closest friends, I might spend up to $200. For family, even more. For someone I’m not as close to, I would spend around $100. And for a big church wedding where everyone is invited and/or I’m not particularly close to the couple or a coworker that invites the whole office and/or I’m not particularly close to,custom bobblehead,Cleaning Vintage Wedding Dresses, I might spend $50-$75.

I’ve read statistics on several different occasions that $150 was around the average spent on a wedding gift (which I thought was a little high). But when I was doing research for this blog,customized bobbleheads, I came up with $85 and $70-$100 as being closer to the national average.
