We give $100 PP unless they're really good friends then we consider upping that to $200. If you want to have a simple lunch wedding with appetizers, that's cool. Take the extra money and use it for your new house or whatever. If you want to have an extra fancy wedding well, here's $100 and if you're short then sorry. Your fault for going all out
I think wedding's are getting out of control now with pintrest and Instagram. Everyone feels they need to one-up each other and defeats the entire purpose of celebrating the bride and groom's new 'life' with each other. Brutal

This isn't really a problem. The problem is if the bride/groom are expecting the gifts to cover the cost of the wedding.
