[quote=Anonymous]My DS got married last March. He married a wonderful young woman who came from a family that had few resources. My Ex and I agreed that we would each offer X$ amount and our son and his fiancée could figure it out from there. My Ex then decided to pay for the wedding gown, justifying it that we didn’t have any daughters and this was her only opportunity to do so. I then offered to buy the “after ceremony” dress (or whatever it’s called) under the same reasoning. The Ex and I, at the wedding, also agreed to cover the bar bill. All in, we spent about double what we had originally agreed to. Our new DIL was grateful and we were happy to do. -I should add that our DIL lost her mother several years ago and has a somewhat distant relationship with her dad, so we didn’t step on anyone’s toes here.
