Nope, the wedding is no-cost* to guests. - ty97 Apr 5, 14:59 15
- All of the etiquette books say no guest is obligated to give a gift at all. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 15:18
- I'd bet most people who attend weddings don't know actual cost per plate. - b. Apr 5, 15:07
- I thought the norm was to have a registry... -- nm - con_carne Apr 5, 15:02
- It would be amusing (but shitty) to put a check for $109. -- nm - TFox Apr 5, 15:01
- That's the usual norm, but $109 per plate? - spamlet Apr 5, 15:01 5
  - that's really not that expensive. especially if there's any liquor involved. -- nm - Diva Apr 5, 15:25
  - dude, my cousin's wedding was $250, not including wine or open bar. -- nm - loosilu Apr 5, 15:19
  - I was figuring this was including facility rental, food, open bar, maybe band? -- nm - ty97 Apr 5, 15:05 2
    - Ok, maybe. I was looking at it just for the food. -- nm - spamlet Apr 5, 15:09 1
      - it could well be. - b. Apr 5, 15:11
- and it's open bar -- nm - ty97 Apr 5, 15:00 4
  - i have literally never been to a wedding that was not open bar. - Andie Apr 5, 17:14
  - Is this a 1% wedding? -- nm - amoxy Apr 5, 15:02 2
    - My family weddings have always been like this. Just family tradition I guess. - ty97 Apr 5, 15:04 1
      - OK Family, I would give 200 then -- nm - amoxy Apr 5, 15:06
