How much to spend on a wedding gift?

I wouldn't bring anything if you've contributed to a work collection already.

So why are you going?

I am going because lots of people from work are going (quite a few of whom don't know her very well either), and because she has been kind enough to invite me.

Thanks for all your replies. I feel much less like I need to give money now. I was thinking I might go with the tried and tested wine, but maybe I will get something else - I especially like the scented candle idea but unfortunately the wedding is on Saturday, so I've left it too late to buy one on the internet! I'm pretty sure I know somewhere I can get one, though. A photo frame is a good idea too. That can be my back-up in case I can't find the right candle!
