Answer(s) to this Question (
1 / 2
)
Who Pays?
Tradition rarely dictates what happens in a wedding these days. Less than 40% of weddings are paid for along traditional lines. A majority of couples are paying for their own special day with parents pitching in where they wish. Most brides say that their parents are coming up with a cash contribution towards the wedding rather than footing the bill for the entire thing.
Most couples these days plan weddings which must be financed and most of them finance it themselves. You should contribute what you wish to contribute and feel no obligation to follow anyone else´s guidelines.
Good from the Get-Go
Decide up-front, from the *very* beginning, who is going to pay for what. Make a huge master list of everything you´ll need to buy/rent and mark off which things you´re paying for, what your parents are paying for, what the groom´s family is buying, etc. There will also be things that pop up unexpectedly---decide *now* who is willing to pay for extras. It´s not always a fun task, but knowing early on who´s paying for what can eliminate uncomfortable scenes and nasty arguments later.
