I was on the "registering and gifts" board and stumbled upon this thread.
How much do I, MOH give? Quite a few people said they follow the "cover your plate" "rule" when giving a gift at a wedding. I had honestly never heard of that before TK.
I personally have never done this, and probably never will do this. H and I give gifts based on what we can afford and what we want to give the bride and groom.
What's your opinion?
I don't think guests should feel obligated to give a gift that covers the cost of their plate.
