    all my family could pay was for the food, they wanted to pay for lots more but they dont have alot of money, and my husbands parents understood that they helped pay for the other things, but mostly me and my husband saved up and bought things on our own, and just and FYI…if your MIL pays for something she somewhat has a say on how it should be handled so i would think about that lol

    normally the brides family it’s the food, reception and ceremony hall, dress, cake.

    the grooms family pays for the flowers, honeymoon

    and the girls pay their own way normally same with the guys.

    but that is if you go on really old tradition.. modern times the brides family or the bride and groom themselves pay.

    modern weddings are different, we have paid for everything ourselves (didnt even ask parents for help) but then they chipped in and paid for bits and bobs, his mother paying for food, my mother paid for dress etc, speak to both parents and if theyr willing to participate set out a line to what each will pay for

    Brides parents pay for wedding, reception, dress, flowers. Grooms parents pay for the Brides flowers, booze, grooms tux, rehearsal dinner.

    The attendants pay for their own dress and tux.

    But that was 40 years ago, Now most couples and parents split it three ways or the couple pay for all of it,

    Old school tradition is that the bride’s family pay but nowadays it varies. If they have hinted they might want to pay something, meet with them and ask what, if anything, they are willing to contribute. These days its much more common for the bride/groom to pay themselves. My husband and I paid for our own wedding, although my Mom paid for my dress, both Moms paid for the shower, and my Husband’s aunt paid for our rehearsal dinner as our gift, which was unexpected.

    Most couples I know paid for their own weddings. My parent’s are paying for my dress ($850) and that is all. His family isn’t paying for anything. We don’t expect our parent’s to pay for anything and I am thrilled mine offered to buy my dress. The wedding party pays for their own dresses, shoes, and tuxes. Some brides will pay for the bridesmaids jewelry as their wedding gift given at the rehearsal/grooms supper.

    the brides family normaly pays for the bridesdress, cake, decorations bridemaids outfits and food, the grooms parents normaly pay for the reception ushers outfits, grooms suit and flowers.

    but these days its nice to share the payment between both familys sit them down together and talk who pays for what, thats what my family did and its all sorted and shared between us all. good luck

    sweetie the old tradition of the father paying for the bulk of a wedding was some time back – now it seems that most young couples pay their own way especially when they are old enough to have a child and another one on the way.
    i’ve read your other questions and i just want to say you fiance is someone who needs to do a lot of growing up before he gets married. i’m concerned that you are going to marry someone who drinks quite a bit, who seems to think it perfectly fine to spank a seven month old baby and by the sound of it he bullies that child. then you say he thinks it okay to take that same child in a boat with his pals and no life jacket for the infant.
    please reconsider this marriage – you don’t have to marry this boy – you do need to seek some counselling and get some perspective about what a man and a father should be.
    good luck to you sweetie.

    Traditionally father paid for all
    But to be honest who ever pays has the right to invite whom they like to the wedding
    But modern couples pay themselves then they are in sole charge

    normally its the responsibility of the bride’s father to pay for those all expenses. but for the wedding ring/necklace and for bride’s saree the brides man should pay. this will change according to your country and traditions.
