[quote=Anonymous]You don't have to pay for weddings, but if you do, please make any strings clear from the start so they can decline. We eloped because I knew my parents were incredibly controlling with money and I didn't want to deal and we aren't into being the center of attention. They insisted on throwing a celebration and made it clear they controlled everything. We allowed it to keep the peace, but never wanted it. This celebration has been thrown in my face for decades. We also were told we were getting $10,000 to put toward furniture, etc. Very generous-right? Everything needed approval and commentary and guilt trips. After all the hoops to use a few thousand we decided to pay for the rest ourselves. They try to guilt trip us about that and seem to forget we didn't use most of that "gift."[/quote]
