When I was single I’d give £50, now I’m married and if we’re both going to the wedding I’d put £100 in a nice card.

Because they go cheap on the mealWe also mostly got 100-200€ per couple. I just don’t understand how so many people say gifts repay all your wedding costs because for us it didn’t even cover the catering.
I had a person saying that the going rate for a wedding is €50 for the meal. I almost choked its closer to €100 and ours is even a bit more expensive but that's the venue. Same person boasts me made a profit from his but the meal was awful and it seemed cheap
I think in Ireland the norm is €100 for single and €200 for a couple then family members and wedding party give a bit more. But I think it’s ultimately what you can afford. For example our groomsmen are all high earners and single people so probably have more spare cash than my bridesmaid who are lower earners and have children etc.
agree with above posters, people say it covers their plate and a bit more but ours is just over €100 per head and I really don’t expect the majority of our guests to be able to give us that.

Ours is £120 per person for all day guests! To be fair to the hotel though we do get canapés, a four course meal, buffet, bacon sandwiches, champagne, candy cart, dj, chair covers & marquee in that cost

I haven’t had a drink for 6 years but I’d make the exception for champagne
funnily enough I don’t drink either but I usually don’t bother telling people (why people can’t just accept “no thankyou” is beyond me) and just get some fizzy fruity drink and dunk it in a wine/ champagne glass and pretend I’m fancy
We are lucky that weddings are rather cheap in the north west!

Is it weird that I’m like totally relaxed and not stressed at all?It goes so quick! Try and relax this week easier said than done I know
I think my brain just doesn’t function like other peoples, we’ve just sold our house and moved and I wasn’t stressed about that either
I think for me, all the details are in place & everything is sorted so now I’m just looking forward to the day!

I really wish I could have been more like this on the run up to mine. I hope you have the best day ever 
I think I’m just a relaxed person naturally, I’ve always been very laid back! Plus for me I’ve never had dreams of a wedding day, this is something I decided to do later in life, so I think I’m just looking forward to the whole experience!This sounds absolutely perfect
Thank you!
Just ordered my invites! How frickin exciting. I made them myself so I hope they're nice lol
I GOT A REPLACEMENT VENUE
