going to clubs every weekend spending 150-200$ per person or going 2-3 times a year spending 3-4k a night on crystal champagne and grey goose with a bunch of friends in a private booth...yes we are real losers
Spending 200$ in a club even once a year still sounds stupid to me. Honestly I don't know how people manage to spend that much. I never bring more than 40$ and I always end up drunk. Granted I don't go to those stupid ass clubs filled with douches who charge a 20$ cover.

Well I'll report back saying I did not get laid because I was helping a cousin who drank WAY too much. Wasn't many people my age, mostly older. Some hot french chicks though.
Oh well, there's always next time.

Wow... after reading this thread, I'm surprised at the extreme culture differences.
I'm half Italian and half British and I would never ever think of giving less than $150 for a wedding.
Good friends I'm putting $200 a head, and if I'm in the bridal party its a whole lot more.
Someone who shows up to a wedding and doesnt give a gift is unexplainable and just straight up cheap, no ifs/ands or buts.
By no means should the total cost of ANY wedding be covered by the guests, but the straight up rule #1 is that you at least cover your plate.
Now and days in any decent hall with open bar its MINIMUM $120+ per person... and thats MINIMUM!
I'm recently married, and as extremely generous as my guests were, they did not pay for the cost of the wedding and that is expected, but overall they did pay for the costs of the plates.
I'm actually shocked by how cheap some of you are... whether the bride/groom can afford the wedding or not I dont care, I am giving them a gift because I want to, and trying to help them pay for their big day and whatever future expenses they have.
Please do not EVER go to a wedding and not give a gift, I'm embarrassed for you.

You're inviting them to your thing, and want them to pay. It's like if I invited you to my house for a BBQ and told you to bring your own meat.
FUCK THAT SHIT.
Gifts should be given out of love, not out of necessity.
Maybe some people can't afford to give $100+. Doesn't make us bad people, at least we show up.
If you can't afford to get married, don't get married.

At least you seem to be generous and respectful of the tradition. And saying know cause you know you won't or don't want to give anything is way better that showing up and not g*ving a damm about the two person getting married.
4k for 7 wedding either you were including hotel fee or you were best man at one of those wedding.

Marriage et BBQ ne se comparent pas selon moi. Lorsque j`invite une personne a manger a la maison, j'ai aucune attente en retour. Cette meme personne peut m'inviter chez eux plusieurs fois et vice versa. Cependant, un marriage arrive habituellement une fois dans ta vie, dans ma culture, j'ai toujours appris a donner de l'argent a un marriage et oui si t'en donne pas, ca se voit mal. Mais bon, tout ca pour une question de culture. Au moins par question de principe, si on attend rien de moi. J`pairais mon plat au moins.Anyways, to each it`s own.
