...or the equivalent in cold hard cash. 

Yeah as a quest & was only having a joke with OP but my experience wedding HiSo crap or not it is the gold being displayed after the ceremony, cash is pinned to them but not anywhere near the cost of the gold.

What they pay for you? 

 

Same as every other wedding, you give what they pay for your "wedding" ticket! Hotel, food drinks, etc!

Though, in actuality, baht gold is almost always reserved for the respective families to suss out. 

Not of proper decorum for guests of any sort to extend gold as an offering. 

 

The usual envelopes are quite proper and appropriate.

Envelope is fine.

 

Make sure you look good cause you'll have to go on loads and loads of photo's. And eat the sharkfins, pigletskin, duckskin, and the rest of the 'goodies'....

I have no idea about HiSo weddings but I am wondering how much money must be in such an envelope.

Somehow I guess a small amount like maybe 10,000B would not impress any HiSo.

If they pay your air ticket, transport, hotel, food, drinks I guess 10 000 would be ok Golden rule, never less what you or yours getting as guests in the weddingpackage! If your «ticket» value is 1500,- for the food and drinks included singer dancers etc, then you give 1500!  Why change the golden rule? Be sure they tell you what the wedding cost, and how many people invited, so easy math!

Most tamboons, of any nature, are tedious as such applies to the proverbial cash extensions and class judgement thereof.

I just hang around for the "drinking with the boys" part...

A bottle of wine and a box of condoms.

 

If they can't find it in them to both laugh at it and find it useful, forget them.
