I've been invited to the wedding of my boss, what's the etiquette gift-wise? She has a list with gifts ranging from £30 to £500.

I'm autistic so I just need help knowing exactly how much I should spend so I don't cause offence, help!

are you the only work colleague invited?
if there's a group of you invited, discuss it with your colleagues, maybe get a joint gift - or at least an idea of what people that are in a similar situation to you and know the manager and the set up/culture of your work environment.

Then if you're going to the whole wedding including a nice meal get a gift of about £50-60. If you're bringing a partner then £100

You spend what you can afford. If this is just a nice card then so be it. £30 is fine if you can afford it.

I wouldn’t expect any of my employees to buy me anything other than your time on the day.

Thank you for your reply!

I can afford any amount really, I'm very lucky to be comfortable financially.

I don't want to appear tight, but I don't want to go overboard and make it weird.
