| If you can afford it, then it is enough. |

| If money is getting tight it is completely acceptable. As matron of honor you have a close relationship with the bride so she won't be judging you. She surely knows how much you have done for her already. It's not like your the well off relative or friend who's only giving her 20 bucks. |

| It probably depends on where you are from, where i'm from $75 is very acceptable. Most people here do not go over board on thier weddings (there are some of course) and have very simple receptions, I don't think there is anything wrong on how much you spend on a gift. When my husband and I got married, we didn't judge our friends and family on how much they gave us, we were just happy they were able to attend and be apart of our big day. |

| NO, give $100 OR buy a gift off the registry for $75. Just because you've spent money already does not entitle you to get out of buying a regular gift...it should be an honor to be part of the ceremony! |

| Only you can answer that. Everyone has a different financial situation.Questions you should ask yourself, what would you have given if you had no other expenses for the wedding? Is that still in your budget after the other expenses?Did you pay for the bachelorette party all yourself ? I thought that was supposed to be split among the bridal party.Where I come from $75 is a gift you might receive from someone coming alone to a wedding who is just a friend. |

| Definately enough. You have already spent over 100 dollars on just gifts not to mention the party. Its not about the price tags its about what comes from your heart and you have definately shown that you have love for your friend. Relax sweetie, you've done great! |
