Default Re: how much do you really spend on a wedding gift?

Luxliving - sorry for misinterpreting your message to begin with. I see your point.

Princess Perky - I also see your point.

I would want to know what the person really wants if I was too to spend money on a gift for them. How would I go about it without getting the image of bridzilla and be gracious?

I probably feel differently for my wedding because 90% of my guests are flying in from another state. I am surprise so many can come to the Bay Area with the location being so expensive for hotels and food and etc. I am more than happy that they can be at the wedding to celebrate together.

So far the people asking Mother in Law about what gifts we would want, I do not know them and never had met them. They are friends of the Mother in law and they are not invited to the wedding. This feels akward.


But I have been thinking more about this since this forum… Maybe my fiancé and I should register at a reasonable place to make it easier on other people…. I would have to convince my soon to be hubby first smile.
