We're paying for everything... I think the days of the parents paying for everything is long gone... although my parents are paying for flowers and gave me $$ towards my dress.

We are paying for it all right down to the rehearsal dinner.... The only thing my parents are paying for is my dress. They would be helping more but my dad lost his job, and I could never even imagine asking.

My parents are paying reception, which is a HUGE help since its a majority of the wedding, and my dress....FH and I are paying for the limo, dj, invites, e-party, photog, RD, etc. FIL are paying for HM and flowers and some $ when we are ready to buy a home.

We are paying for everything. We insisted, in part because we're older and can afford it, and in part because we wanted complete control over the wedding.

We are paying for quite a bit and FH's family made a very nice donation towards it but we planned on paying everything ourselves.

We were planning on paying for everything, but FI's parents (divorced) talked it over and are each contributing an equal amount to our wedding fund. It will probably end up covering about 1/3 of the cost, so it was a great surprise and relief! My parents aren't in a position to contribute, so we'll be covering the rest.
