[quote=Anonymous]these days the grooms fam is "expected" to pay for more than they were in the past. this message hasn't seemed to make it to lots of the grooms' families. we paid for our DD's entire wedding. groom's fam paid for rehearsal dinner. it doesn't seem fair to spend 100k on a daughter's wedding and then nothing for the son. but it also doesn't seem fair to pay 100k for a wedding and 100k (example numbers) and then just pay 100k to the son for downpayment. if the wedding wasn't so extravagant, there wouldn't be such a discrepancy, but i feel like spending 100k on a wedding is more for the parents to show off than what the bride actually **needs** to pull off a nicee wedding. we went to a wedding last night that was over 100k. it was very nice, but i think it is kind of crazy to spend that much for a one night party. i would rather have money to put on a house.
