WHO IS PAYING FOR YOUR WEDDING?

Just wanted an idea... Who is paying for your wedding... Is it the both of you, your family, both families or both families and the two of you?

we are paying for everything ourselves. i prefer it that way because no one can tell me what to do and when to do it.

we are.. I agree about making the decisions ourselves.. If anyone elses money were involved I don't think it would go the way we wanted it to..

(in order of percentage) Me and FI, my Grandma (who raised me), my Dad, FI's parents, and my mom (making the dresses and getting a portion of the flowers).

We couldn't do it on our own, just couldn't. At least not the wedding we all wanted.

We are paying for it ourselves. In a way I'm very glad because we have 100% control on all the decisions and don't have to feel like we owe anybody anything, but then again, we can't even go out to the movies!! My mom has offered to give us our honeymoon as a gift and FH bought our home 1 month before he proposed so we are still quite fortunate.

My mom is paying for a chunk of it. His parents are helping, but they also have to fly out here with all their children, stay in a hotel, etc... (they live in another country). We are paying for the rest (which is most of it).

My mother paid about 90% of the traditional wedding expenses. DH and I paid about 10% of our wedding expenses and DH's parents about 5%.

We are paying for it on our own. I've been so stressed out the last few weeks thinking about this but I have faith that it will all turn out well (I have to keep reminding myself this otherwise I think I may lose my mind )

The reception and honeymoon are being paid by parents and we are paying for the rest. I consider us very fortunate !!

FH and I are paying for the church, limos, honeymoon and a few of the little things, my mom and dad are paying for the rest of the wedding, more from mom, and FH's father is paying for the rehearsal dinner. I truly am thankful to them all, because without them, I know I never would be having this wedding the way I always dreamed of it!!!

FI and I are paying for honeymoon, the wedding bands and videographer. My parents are paying for everything else.

everyone is paying for the wedding in some way.
We couldn't ask for a better set of parents. They aren't paying for it all , but they are making contributions that really help!

I love them all!!!!

Both of our families, we are very lucky and way too young to be able to afford a wedding like the one we are going to have.
