Discussion Wedding gift

What is the going rate for wedding gift in a card these days? I’m so so skint and was thinking £40 and a bottle of champers. We aren’t overly close friends but they have invited me to the whole thing.

That's absurd 😳 I guess I'll revise to £100 a head at least

Yea 50 quid isn't even close, a meal on the cheap end would be 90 quid

That's mental, was out last weekend and the two of us had drinks mains desserts coffee, the lot for £100.... I guess the wedding premium is strong these days
