Wedding gift for tenants........

My tenants are getting married next month and I'm not sure how much we should give. My DH thinks $500.00. I was thinking more around #350.00. They have been living downstairs alittle over a year.
WWYD?? TIA!!!

I would say $350 is a good gift. DH and I have been giving $400 if we weren't in the bridal party.

My landlords gave us nothing- then again they weren't invited Chat Icon

I would give whatever you would give to a friend that was getting married- no need to give more than that b/c they live with you.

I would think $350 is more than enough.

Wow!! You guys are generous!! I'd be broke with the number of weddings we've been going to.

when my former landlord came to my wedding 2 years ago, they gave us $250 and i thought that was very generous of them.

I agree with the above, that $250 is more than enough, unless you are really super close with them!

our landlord wasn't at our wedding, but he gave us a bottle of wine anyway. (we had literally just moved in - well, DH was moved in. I didn't move in until the wedding night.

This is the second time in a week that I have been floored by the wedding gifts people give. We received $500 from DH's uncle. Other than that (with the exception of parents and my aunt) we did not receive a gift over $350 and that was close personal friends. Our landords who we did not invite to our wedding got us a $100 GC to KotobukiChat Icon Chat Icon

our tenants didnt invite us to there wedding, so we gave them some nice wine instead.

As far as a gift, I think 300 would suffice.
