[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My in-laws were in their mid-70s when we got married. We did not ask or expect them to pay for anything wedding-related, but they hosted the rehearsal dinner and wound up giving us a large check for the wedding. It was very generous of them, but absolutely not expected, as DH and I were both adults with jobs, etc., by that point.[/quote] I should also note that they have the kind of state pension that no longer exists, so were in a position to do this without jeopardizing their own financial well-being. My own parents were mid-60s, but contributed only a token amount, because they are not in as good of a position, and that was absolutely fine, too. I fully expect we will be supporting at least one of them in their old age.[/quote]
