    What's the standard for spending on gifts? Is there a certain amount and should you spend more on say Maid of Honour and Best man than you should on bridesmaids/ushers?

    Any help would be appreciated - dont want to put any noses out of joint! x

    I've spent £20 each on Mum and MIL2B ( even though the cow hasnt contributed a single penny towards the day or even offered to help)

    We have 8 groomsmen inc groom and Father and FIL2B so we are only spending a few pounds on each of them to get them some cufflinks as we have had their cravats hand made so they will be keeping them

    I have 5 bridesmaids and 2 flowergirls, The bridesmaids i have bought their dresses, jewelery, hair pins and scarves so thats their presents and the Flowergirls i've bought there entire outfits and we're getting them a little wooden plaque for £5 :)
