Here's a question for you all on wedding gifts 09:56 - Sep 21 with 5743 viewsBluefish

I am off to a ridiculously posh wedding tomorrow in one of the most expensive hotels in the Britain. The majority of people there will be millionaires, I am not one of them. The couple live in 1.5 million plus house and have good jobs (They worked there way to them and started at the bottom). I am invited all day, how much do you give? It is cash contributions to the honeymoon opposed to gifts

Don't get me wrong, Joe. I always take a gift to a wedding but it just so happens I've never been to one where there's been a list. It seems totally bizarre to me to demand things of people who are already spending money on attending. As I said above, gifts should be given not demanded.

And if they want a nice set of china then they can bloody well work for it.


Wedding lists have been standard for over 15 years. Nowadays honeymoon contributions are the new norm

Asking for wedding gifts in 2018 (and more so when you are comfortable) is a joke.

Donations to charity or you have zero class.

We asked for no gifts at our wedding. The wedding invitations included a crap comment along the lines of "we want your presence, not presents". This was my wife's inspiration, I should add.

This was against my better judgement. Being a man of no morals or indeed class, I wanted "the stuff". I am pleased to say that most of the guests duly obliged. Apart from my wife's uncle, that is. Who proceeded to take full advantage of the free bar. Yet again, he is a c**t.

I had that thought but attendees are going to want to buy a gift (The loaded ones especially) so they need to give an option that doesn't leave them piled up with expensive tat


Option 1) A Faberge egg
Option 2) An apartment in Dubai
Option 3) An Amazon gift voucher for $5,000,000.

Option 1 if you're tight.

That's usually left to the groom on the honeymoon.

I wouldnt get too hung up on the amount to give. If the couple are going to look poorly on , say £100, then I think it reflects on them rather than you. Seeing as they clearly like you and have invited you all day then I'd probably lump in £200. Failing that you can always swop envelopes with someone who has weighed in heavier.


Your biggest problem is going to be drinking too much falling down juice and belting out the words to Angels on the dance floor or going the full Travolta with the flying jacket scenario.


Anyhow, have a good day.

Fair points although I think they prefer the missus to me.

My knee rules me out of all dancing and means extreme care when walking especially on stairs. Not sure my drinking will agree with this though

I would normally give £100 as a day guest.

I like the idea of giving it in the currency of wherever they’re off to though, that’s a nice touch.

£10 voucher for Poundland?

The money for honeymoon option seems to increasingly be the norm doesn't it? I quite like Joe's suggestion of cash in the destination currency if possible. I think about £50 would be fair - if every guest gave that much it would quickly add up to a shedload of money.
