[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My son got married last week. Him and his bride paid for most of the wedding themselves but they wanted a simple wedding …80 people at an outdoor ceremony then reception in a restored grist mill. It was simple, beautiful, and a collaborative effort between both families as we created decor and an elaborate dessert table . It was a lot of fun and it was very memorable and meaningful for both of them . My DIL and I grew dahlias in my garden which she used on the tables, my son and I planted and tended overflowing flower pots that lined the walkways , etc. The brides family and my dh and I each contributed equal amounts to their special day and split the cost of rehearsal dinner. But I think it’s important for the ones getting married to pay for the majority of a wedding themselves. Any gifts from the parents on either side should just be icing on the cake . [/quote] That sounds like a gorgeous wedding - mazel tov![/quote]
