Best Answer

The amount I spend on any gift for someone depends entirely on how well I know them. If it was an engagement gift for my brother & partner I would spend up to £60, but if it was a friend from work then I'd spend £10-£15. I hope that helps a little! Remember, it's not about how much you spend at he end of the day, it's how much thought you put into the gift. The more appropriate it is for the recipient(s), the more they will apprecciate it.

You can plan on 15 to 25 dollars a person depending on venue and food. Multiply that amount by the people who will be there.

* For an engagement gift just give as much as you can afford and don't put yourself into debt. A gift from the heart is worth a lot more than monetary value.

  • An individual should only give what they can afford. $50 and up is appropriate.
