Asking Too Much
I find it a bit distasteful that some bridezillas decide to request that guests pay a certain amount for wedding gifts. If I were in their place, I would just be happy that I had friends and family to witness my wedding and be grateful for any gift they decide to bring. Apperantly, bridezillas tend to be more materialistic than most people.
According to US News, the average price of a wedding gift is around $100. Since the bride in this story was asking for $250, I think it is safe to say that she was out of line. How much do you think a wedding gift should cost? In my opinion, it should be less about the amount of money you put on it and more about the sentiment.
