Who's Paying?

I don't want to push any buttons and I don't want any drama. So, if this topic offends you...ignore it.
Thanks
I'm just curious to see. I live in FL and it seems NY weddings are costing you ladies a fortune. So, just out of curiosity I'm interested to see who's paying for it.

Me, my parents and FH parents. We're spreading the outrageous costs around.

My parents are paying for our reception and my wedding dress. FH parents are paying for our DJ and flowers and we are paying for everything else. FH's parents don't have daughters so they really wanted to help us out.

Re: Who's Paying?

Basically, FH and I. Our parents really can't afford it and that's okay.... So, I had to get married in February at a low-cost hall to do it, but that's fine....

We are paying for:
Reception
All church related fees
Limos
Band
Photo/Video
Honeymoon
BP gifts, etc.
Stationary for STD's, etc. etc.
And probably all the other little things that I am forgetting.....

My Parents:
My dress and accessories (i.e. veil, shoes, jewelry)
Flowers
Invitations

FFIL:
Rehearsal dinner

90% us

My mom bought my wedding dress and any of my wedding day attire.
She is also paying for the church

FH parents are giving us 1/2 the money for the honeymoon and paying for the flowers.

Re: Who's Paying?

My parents are making my dream wedding come true by paying for our reception. FIL's made it a point at our e-dinner to say the $$ they gave us was just a engagement gift so I don't know what their plan is....other than that..FH & I are paying for everything else.

Re: Who's Paying?

I do wish I could afford to pay for more--- but I have to give credit where credit is most definitely deserved-- my mom and dad are footing the bill.

We are paying for the wedding ourselves.

Re: Who's Paying?

Right now I am basically paying for it myself Fh is taking care of other things right now. My mom is not helping me at all. I mean not even my gown, my dad said he will help, but has not offered. My sis and I will talk to him in a week of so because I will not be able to pay it all myself. I have gone over my budget

Re: Who's Paying?

I'd say it's:

65% Us
35% My parents

His family hasn't offered and we're not asking
