This theory is exactly right. It is supposed to depend on where it will be and what the expense of the wedding is. It's more of a thank you to the couple for allowing you to share their day and festivities with them. If it's a run away elope in Vegas, the $ gift would be much less than an elaborate, expensive ceremony.
