Weddings are always so beautiful…the happy couple… the sweet smelling flowers…gorgeous wedding cake…abundance of alcohol…simply a wonderful and joyous occasion.  However, it can be costly for both the bride and groom and the guests.  No matter how many weddings we all attend, the same questions run through our minds.  Here are answers to the most commonly asked questions…

“How much should I spend on a gift?” Generally you should spend $50-75 and twice that amount if you bring a guest.  Spending $100 or more is acceptable if you have a closer relationship with the bride or groom.

“Is giving cash okay?” Sure!  It may seem impersonal, but you are actually being helpful.  It can be inconvenient for the newlyweds or the wedding party to have to supervise the gift table and transport large gifts on an already busy day.  If you plan to purchase a gift, it is recommended that it be delivered to the couple’s home prior to the wedding day.

“Do I still give a gift when I will not be attending the wedding?” Yes, because a gift to the couple shows that you care, support, and celebrate their new life together.
