If you have the money to give I would give it personally. Make it a wedding gift. MOST people who dont have unlimited money kind of go over board on their wedding. If your sister isnt selfish and doesnt expect everything handed to her I would help as best you can.

Plus being her brother your gift should be more expensive than say I would give her.

Good luck with whatever you decide to do.

It's not a question of whether I will or won't. I of course am going to help her out. I just didn't know what was good for a wedding. I'm In the Military and earn a decent living. If you were in my shoes, how much would you give

What's too much to you?

I wanted to give my brother and his wife a 500 dollar gift card to bombay as their wedding present, but I'm poor so they got a few of the items from their registry instead totaling about 300.  :roll:

I know a couple family members (not so close, aunts and uncles, grandparents) gave them each about 100-600 each.
