Re: Another $$$$$ poll! Paying for you wedding...
we just got a loan for our HM and to fly the pastor in and pay some stuff off, both sets of parents are chipping in and we plan on paying them back.

Re: Another $$$$$ poll! Paying for you wedding...
We are totally paying for the wedding ourself. FH is 35, I am 31, I would feel funny taking money from my Mom and my FMIL at this age.
It is stressful, and hard to save.. but in the end I know it will be worth it.

Re: Another $$$$$ poll! Paying for you wedding...
We are 70% paying it for ourselves.. future inlaws are taking care of the photography/videography and flowers. My parents gave us the option of contributing towards the wedding, or allowing us to pay for the wedding make our own decisions, and in turn they would give us a generous gift as a wedding present.
I chose to wait and get the gift, since this way FH and I could plan the wedding WE wanted. Luckily FILs are very cool and they are allowing us to pick our photographers/video/flowers the way we want, as well
We consider ourselves VERY lucky to have this type of arrangement -- so far be it from me to complain!!

I polled Me and FI only but my mother is buying me my dress. But that's it! I figure as long as the church and reception is paid for I can wing everything else. I have to since we'll be broke by then!

Re: Another $$$$$ poll! Paying for you wedding...
My parents are paying for the bulk of it (reception, invitations, wedding gown and accessories), my FIL's are paying for the band, photo/video, and rehearsal dinner and my FH and I are paying for the flowers, favors, gifts for BP, rings and HM. It's a group effort.

Re: Another $$$$$ poll! Paying for you wedding...
I am lucky to have my parents paying for most of the reception and my dress. FIL's are paying for flowers and rehearsal diner. Fh & I have the rest. I am so thankful for all the help we get!
