What is the etiquette? How much do people normally give. My mom says the the average guest cost is up to 54 dollars.

In my family (and I know I'll get a thumbs down for this) we usually try to cover the cost of what we think our meal would be (within reason) and then a little more.
However, if the bride and groom are paying $200 per plate, we give what we can.

I'd guess $50 per person for friends and $100 per person for family.

However much you can afford without penny pinching.
How close are they to you?
Just remember that gifts are never required whether you can attend or not, you give if you WANT to.
I give close relatives $100 and not so close relatives less than that.

For a gift or per person to spend on food? If a gift I would do a flat $100.00, if per person I would stick to a chocolate fountain!

You give ask much or as little as you can comfortably afford.
