[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My Dh and I paid for our own wedding because we make more $$ than my parents did. We told our daughter that we would give her x amount (a substantial five figure sum) for a wedding. She could have a small wedding and use the money for a down payment on a house (or whatever) or use it for a big wedding. She chose to spend it on the wedding, which was lovely, but she confided just a few years later that she regretted not using the money toward their house. [/quote] This is fine, but it’s also fine to insist on a wedding if you’re paying for it. It doesn’t have to be fungible, and they can always kindly decline. My parents paid for our wedding because they wanted to throw a big bash. They had a great time, so did we, everybody wins. [/quote]
