Wedding gift amount

I met a mum friend last year and have been invited to their wedding this year (all day invite, just me - my husband and children aren’t invited). They have asked for money towards their honeymoon instead of gifts. How much would you give?

If it was me I would probably do £30.

We were gifted £50 or £100 from guests when we got married in 2023. My friends have just got married but had a family only civil ceremony and I gifted them £50. So probably would do the same to a recent mum friend who’s wedding I’m actually attending xx

I would base it on your budget, usually if it was a friend that I haven't known very long I'd prob do £25 - 30. We do £50 for closer family friends and £100 for actual relatives.

We got married last year and most couples gave us £50 :)

I'd do personally what you can afford.

€30 as you are going on your own x

I would do £30 for not a close friend, especially as it's only a solo invite too. Close friends/family £50/£100

Lost friends since being a mum

Good morning! Can anyone relate to this!

My two friends and me have always been close since our early teens. I’m the first to have a baby.

One friend has big house, career and boyfriend

Other out of a long term relationship and being single having fun etc

Before baby we would all hang at my
Apartment, chat eat and just have
Fun.

Now I don’t even get a text to ask how my baby is, how I am. I really thought they would be awesome aunties. But honestly they don’t care.

They meet up a lot to do cool things, which I can’t be upset about as I can’t as I have my baby.

I don’t know I feel sad about it.

Am I over reacting?

31 weeks pregnant and lonely

How to deal with loneliness in pregnancy when your boyfriend goes out with his friends drinking 😅🥲 I only have three friends, two are never really free and one lives back in Liverpool and has her own set of friends where she goes to raves and goes on holiday with them lol. My boyfriend is going out soon for the night as it’s sunny and I’ll just be sat here crying like every single time! When does it stop 🤣
