Unfortunately, $4K doesn't get you far these days.
It really doesn't. I know many photographers in that range, and some who are more than that.
I wonder what ratio is of the average wedding-gift-value to average wedding-cost.
Good question. I can say it seems to depend on the giver, and the background of the guest/typical income bracket. Few guests bring gifts anymore, as most prefer to mail it to the couple instead (I fully support this idea, the couple and their family already has a TON of stuff they are packing up at the end of the night and most barely have room for what they are taking back with them).
