## Resource

Wedding gifts are getting a major makeover—cash, cards, and personal gestures are replacing toasters and china as the new norm. With couples often already living together and the cost-of-living crunch hitting hard, physical gifts feel less relevant. Most guests now aim for $100–$200, or match what the couple spends per guest, while casual friends might go $40–$60. The trend? Less stuff, more sentiment. It’s not about possessions anymore—it’s about meaning, and honestly, it’s a lot more real that way.
