I'm looking at her registry now, and my question is, how much are you supposed to spend on a wedding gift? I've known this girl for about 4 years, but we're not extremely close. Also, I'm still in college, as are most of the guests at her wedding probably, so I don't have a lot of money to spend on wedding gifts.

Personal opinion..... Don't spend any more than you can afford. If you can only spend $20 on their gift, then that is all you should do. She knows you are still in college, I am SURE they will understand.

Surely they will care much more about you being there for their wedding than how much money you spend.
Also, a suggestion if they don't have registry items in your price range.... If you know other people who are going, you can get together and get them something nicer than you might be able to do on your own.
Does anyone think I am way off base here?
