wedding gift

:?: :?: :?: I need suggestions. :?: :?: :?:
What is a decent amount (in euros) to give as a wedding gift to a close friend? I don't want to look "cheap", and i don't want to overwhelm, but i do want to make a decent, slightly above normal gift.
thanks,
GG

GG this surely is more to do with what you can afford and what you take delight in giving her so that the "giving" is enjoyable and not just a duty.

Sometimes people appreciate receiving less as any thoughts of future obligations are minimised. Back to "It's the thought that counts". :wink:
