[quote=Anonymous]I was an adult professional when I got married and never expected my parents to fully pay for the wedding. It seems outdated to me. Each of my parents (divorced) gave us a monetary gift to go towards the cost of the wedding. I think my dad specifically paid for the open bar and my mom paid for my dress and maybe an additional 5k. They never have made much money so I very much appreciated their contributions. I don't remember what DH's parents gave us but it was probably more or less equivalent. I anticipate giving my sons a lump sum contribution. I haven't thought about the exact amount but I could see it being the $15k range. I don't see why the bride's family should have to foot all of it.[/quote]
