    If you are both working about €150 -€200

    If not €100 will do the grasping bastards.

    As much as you can afford and are comfortable giving.

    If you're concerned about image, anything less than €50 is odd and anything more than €200 is obscene unless you have special connection to the couple.

    If you are in a couple then €200 If not €150. But like i said it depends on a lot. If they are best mates then more. If you are out of work then less.

    There's no set rule.

    Give them a card but dont put money in it and dont sign it, simple, they wont open it in front of ya and by the time they come back from the honeymoon they wont remember who gave what.

    If they question ya say you did, they must have lost it.:pac:
