[quote=Anonymous]My in-laws paid for a crazy expensive wedding for my husband's sister. Her in-laws apparently didn't contribute at all. When we got married a few years before, we had to pay for the bulk of the wedding ourselves. I was the bride, and my parents weren't in a position to contribute much financially, and my in-laws paid for the rehearsal dinner but didn't otherwise contribute to their son's wedding. This wasn't about the money (they have plenty), but about what was "traditional". I didn't really care that they splashed out for their daughter's wedding after not contributing to their son's, except that when we got married, they kept pushing us to invite all their friends and extended relatives, and to spend money on upgrades / fancier things. That annoyed me a lot in hindsight, since if they wanted to dictate the wedding, they should have opened their pocket book. [/quote]
